RETRO pop songs --- from another millennium and another galaxy.
My name's Pete. from Birmingham in UK-land. Nice to meet you ! I made a lot of very varied popsongs in the pre-digital age. I say they're McCartneyish, as I don't know how to categorize them. Allsorts. The description I use is RETRO I'm really a songwriter who wants others to perform these songs. So please bear that in mind as you grimace at my efforts to be acceptable. I'm especially concerned to write good lyrics, and if you do ever give some time to my stuff, I hope you will click to the lyrics and read those also. They don't come easy, you know. I'm plonking my songs here to give them a home, in the hope you might think they're not too bad. In fact, in the hope that you'll snap them up and I'll become an instant overnight megastar multi-millionaire. But failing that, I hope that you just like them. And if you do like one - I'd especially like it if you told me so. We all need strokes, eh ? Cheers ! Pete Songs-in-a-Bottle

Story behind the song
there were 55 bars in the original tune, so i called it that i remember insisting to Andy that i wanted the beat in between where he wanted to place it. strange memory.
Lyrics
somebody dropped a gentle hint they left me the hole but took my mint now all I got left is the 55 bar blues they've taken my tools to deal with life my left-handed spoon and fork and knife now all I got left is the 55 bar blues I just hit my boss couldn't give a toss he had it coming anyway now I got no job guess I'll be a slob in 55 bars a day caught up in a trap now I've cut the crap I've thrown that stupid job away better be a bum relishing the rum in 55 bars a day somebody took but didn't ask the vacuum from my vacuum flask now all I got left is the 55 bar blues all I got left is the 55 bar blues
