about

Title from a book by Jack kerouac. Almost a loose biographical song of the beat writer.

Acoustic guitar, piano and percussion.

lyrics

before i was the loathsome king of the beats
before they laid a childrens crusade on me
I was a football player for the only team
I was meant for Maggie Cassidy

before i lost myself in conversation and followed any words anywhere
never dreamed of walkin in a circle
or dreamed of anyne who couldn't be here

dead drunk in a bright tv studio
flaked out on the floor of a timber shack
just out of the city
not quite in the woods
I was meant for Maggie Cassidy

before i stoped collecting my reflections
before i didn't want to know
before i tried to put the sea into words
I was meant for Maggie Cassidy

she's got a life of her own boys
she keeps walking through a doorway in my mind
I sit and drink beer with my mother
I speak old french at the tv

I was meant for Maggie Cassidy
I was meant for Maggie Cassidy
