Story behind the song
I used words from a screenplay i wrote, to create the verses, then made up the chorus.
Lyrics
Side of the road by tom mitchell a busy city street.. a young determined looking man pushing a shopping cart he's got his drum set in there he's going to practice at the local porno shop. Bank walks out of the grocery store six pack of beer in his hand there's some kids out front, he knows them. they wish him luck, looking back he sticks his thumb down. And up pulls an old smoky four-door Dodge outcomes skull ,grabs his guitar out of the trunk, kisses his girlfriend goodbye, says" see you in the while" unless i'm broken down on the side of the road i walked for miles can get me no tow. the band asks' will we make the show?. I guess we will the van pulls up in the parking lot. The guys get out front, there 's people waiting in line they ask for an autograph, he gives them a hug instead, they say were so glad you made it he said yeah, we are too you see it's been a long dusty ride, and i'm just glad it's through. cause' i was broken down on the side of the road. I walk for miles,can't get me no tow.. The band asks, can we make the show.? I guess we will cause' i was broken down on the side of the road i walked for for miles and can get me no tow. The band asks will we make the show.? I guess we did I guess we did I guess we did.
