FLEETWOOD MAC - Man of the world
Peter Green vielleicht der Syd Barrett des Blues. "I went on a trip and I never went back". Mysteriöser Charakter und ebensolcher Lebenslauf. Ganz so schlimm wie Barrett hat es ihn am Ende doch nicht erwischt.
Auch diesen Text finde ich ziemlich undurchsichtig, aber auch schön und ergreifend.
Shall I tell you about my life
They say I'm a man of the world
I've flown across every tide
And I've seen lots of pretty girls
I guess I've got everything I need
I would't ask for more
And there's no one I'd rather be
But I just wish that I'd never been born
And I need a good woman
to make me feel like a good man should
I don't say I'm a good man
Oh, but I would be if I could
I could tell you about my life
And keep you amused I'm sure
About all the times I've cried
And how I don't want to be sad anymore
And how I wish I was in love
