Big Time

about

ARTIST'S NOTES:
I was splitting my time between NYC and Bellevue IA. I was scrounging river rat bars for gigs to pay for my Manhattan room. Gigs went from elegant East Coast acoustic venues to Mississippi River dives. Loved em all. The contrast got to me as I pried a few interesting chords out of my old piano. Summer '96

lyrics

Took a trip to New York City
thought I'd make a little change
came back home last Friday evening
it all seemed like such a shame

CHORUS

Everybody's hit the bigtime
nothing is the same
everybody's hit the bigtime
I'm still out here in the rain

All those folks I'd hang around with
they used to call me by my name
all those joints we'd knock around in
they fixed them up so slick and lame

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Don't wanna move, don't wanna budge
don't wanna hold this bitter grudge
don't really care, its neither here nor there
I just cant find it, I just can't find it
Anywhere

The women came the women went
yeah its pretty much the same old game
Now they're too good to be true
That leaves only me to blame

CHORUS
everybody's hit the bigtime
just like a westbound train
everybody'd hit the bigtime
bigtime, just the same
