Fun Facts:
This song was performed live by Rough Terrain on many occasions.
It was composed on the teacher's balcony that overlooks the main school hall at King's School, Ottery St Mary during Project Week, 1982.
It started with the blues riff in G and Naomi kicked things off with "Woke up this morning..."
The rest of the lyrics were a collaborative effort between Jon, Dave, Simon and George.
The guitar plays a blues riff in G, and the phrase ends with a turnaround of F and Dm7.
