Get Going, Get Gone

words and music by
john greene


next time round i could be a winner
had my chances like all of us sinners, yeah
short term gains just aren’t worth the candle
cancel the bitch if it’s too tough to handle it, now

get up, get out, move on, buy a ticket,
walk if you have to, it’s better than sticking it out,
If there's no doubt, she's not the one
get going, get gone

you can’t slam a door if it isn’t open,
can’t spill the milk if you haven’t bought any, no,
there ain’t no smoke without any matches,
you’ll have to run fast if you’re going to catch me now


your god, my god, who gives a goddam
you can’t prove it anymore than i can now
left hand, right hand, black, white or indigo
the one doesn’t know what the others doing anyhow

John Greene Music Falmouth, UK

John Greene's music is a reflection of his turbulent, non-conformist life and is based on early rock and roll, the pop explosion of the 60’s, the blues and many things Americana.
Best described as ‘Hard Country’, it lives in the space also occupied by the likes of Neil Young and the Grateful Dead. It always involves his unique viewpoint on the world he has lived in and the troubles we all share.
