What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (cd)



A gift from a mate. Trouble getting into this one. Nearest sound I can come up with is Hall & Oates. Never was a
big fan of theirs but their hits did grow on me. Not sure if this ever would. An even split between likes and don't
likes. This is his first solo album. The leadoff track here of Tucker's Daughter was a #1 hit single. Pretty good
song, but wondering what it feels like to have your knee bones slapped to the ground. Sounds painful. Ian is best
known as a member of the Australian group Cold Chisel who were a huge success there. The wave never made it to the
states. This album was also a #1 and got Ian the ARIA best male artist and album of the year awards along with song
of the year for Tucker's Daughter. The guy has certainly made a name for himself down under along with Cold Chisel.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Mr. Rain

Best Track - Tucker's Daughter

Hang me for a sucker
On the plains out of Narrabri
Swingin' a hoe in a CAL-cotton row
Sweatin' on the dangers to me
Bossman's Mr. Tucker
He's a man I don't care to defy
And his only child wicked and wild is seeking my company

She wanna build me up tear me down
Slap my knee bones to the ground
Me and mine are gonna be around
When Tuckers' daughter's a memory

Hot sun is a killer
She'll be waitin' at the end of my line
Taking the shade with a cool lemonade sayin'
Boy I wanna talka to you
Bossmans' only daughter
She ain't his and she'll never be mine
Never be down on a dollar or two
Or told what she's gonna do

She wanna build me up tear me down
Slap my knee bones to the ground
Me and mine are gonna be around
When Tuckers' daughters a memory
Build me up tear me down
I won't kneel 'til the trumpet sounds
And Tuckers' daughter's a memory

People born with all they need
They don't understand
Everything you want don't come from holding out your hand
Tuckers' daughter thinks she sees
A slave at her command
I know you need some time yet baby
But when the time is right
Babe I just ain't your man
