“All these people you have messed about with, everyone you have played with, they are all lost too. You can’t go round doing this sort of thing – at least not here. Leave, get yourself sorted. Find your own life. Time to go babe.”

When the album first was released there were no lyrics printed on the sleeve and to learn the words to the songs you had to listen to the album many, many times. Often the words were misheard. For a long time, I thought that the lines, “The highway is for gamblers, you better use your sense,” was You better use your sins. I still like it like that.
