I wrote this while waiting out a snow storm in the parking lot of the Prairie Oasis Motel in Moose Jaw back in '87, and did eventually make it back to my squeeze in Calgary.

lyrics

I’ve Got To Get Back To My Squeeze (J.A. Mills - SOCAN)

1st Verse

I’m out here on the road, but honey I’m coming home
Long distance love an the telephone, just don’t cut it no more
You see I’m missin’, all the hugs and kissin
Baby you know it’s you, I’ve got to get back to my squeeze
She loves to tease and please
She’s a one of a kind girl, a real star attraction
I get a feelin’ of real satisfaction, from my squeeze

Solo

2nd Verse

I play from town to town, layin’ my blues down
Six months on this old highway, and I just can’t take it no more
I’ve got to get back to your lovin’ hold
I’ve been away so long, I’m startin’ to get cold
From the lack of love, it’s your touch I’m dreamin’ of
When I hold you close there’s a positive reaction,
I get a feelin’ of real satisfaction, from my squeeze
She knocks me to my knees

Modulation

Step back, and get yourself back on track
I’ve been gone much too long
Step back, and get yourself back on track
I’m tired of wakin’ up all alone
Step back, and get yourself back on track
Honey I’m comin’ home
Step back, and get yourself back on track

Earthy, jammy progressive rock with thick, chewy guitars and tasty organs. The music is loose and drawn out but rarely loses itself. Just a really vibin' listen. impressivelad
