Johnny's always been a hard rocker
That boy could play the guitar
Only started working part time to pay for his car
But pretty soon, he's working forty hours
His local's starting to call
He wasn't playing much before, now it's hardly at all
And yeah, he got the car, then a bike, then a wife and a child
Now he's just waiting til the day comes when he'll get a break from his life for a while
I'd say, yeah, he's a fucking man
I'd say, yeah, yeah, yeah, he's a fucking man
After work, johnny goes drinking
It's always part of the plan
And every now and then his bros think of starting a band
But now the job got his hands shaking
Just gotta laugh and reflect
But it's hard when Uncle Sam's taking half of his check
He grabs the bottle at the thought of all the grief in his life
He got the itch but he ignores it, hardly sees his poor kid or even his wife
I'd say, yeah, he's a fucking man
I'd say, yeah, yeah, yeah, he's a fucking man
It's always something, another bump in road
It's fucking humbling, just gotta jump when he's told
His dream is crumbling, just give him something to hold
Just give him something to hold
Johnny made a lot of sacrifices
Like leaving the band
And paid or not, that's the price of being a man
And yeah, he coulda been a star, and it woulda been cool
But now he's only working hard for his daughter
That guitar couldn't put her through school
I'd say, yeah, he's a fucking man
I'd say, yeah, yeah, yeah, he's a fucking man

the band sent me this CD gratis years ago. and it sounds so good again and again. can't wait to spin this groove heavy album now that it's been given the proper LP treatment it deserves. riffs galore. chugging and infectious bass lines, stompin' drum beats... like the buffalo... right from the get go... play this loudly. always. wannabejedi
Recorded in a shipping container, the Australian artist's quirky second album is a love letter to 70’s classic rock, folk, and psychedelia. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 15, 2023
