about

This is a story about a guy who feels heemed in by what is happening in his environment and has an urge to hit the road and get away from everything around him.
I often get that urge as I tend to move every 2-3 years.

lyrics

The politicians are creating an atmosphere of fear.
It's got me so worried I can't even drink my beer.

You and me we've gotta get away.
Heh girl let's hit the road today.

My wife says not to worry it's gonna be fine.
Why then is she drinking way too much wine.

You and me we've gotta get away.
Heh girl let's hit the road today.

The rich are getting richer with every new tax break.
Poor people sleeping rough it makes my heart ache.

You and me we've gotta get away.
Heh girl let's hit the road today.

You and me we've gotta get away.
Heh girl let's hit the road today.

about

Markham Monk Leipzig, Germany

I like all types of music.
American and British music have been my main influences.
I was drawn to Country music when I lived and traveled in the USA during the early 1980s.
These days I am mainly drawn to writing music in a easy listening country pop style although I also like writing in a slightly more country rock or pop rock style.
