Notes

My earlier song, "Mountain Boy", had been very well received. I would sometimes be asked to sing it, and on occasion this would happen while David was around. But small boys grow into teenagers, and while David was no rebel, having that song in the background didn’t always sit easily with him. Hence this light-hearted ditty. The trouble was that while it expressed pretty clearly how he felt, it had still been written by his Dad, and so in a way only made things worse. Something like trying to dig yourself out of a hole....
