From the recording Doesn't Play Well With Others
Notes; I have to declare with total immodesty that I LOVE this song. I had an absolute blast playing it.
There are probably 10 guitars on here. I had the song title in my head for months (I even announced on Facebook, when I released the last album 'Onion', that this would be the name of my next album).
If anything influenced it then I'd lean towards Lucinda Williams version of 'Honey Bee'.
I was going to put this as the first track on the record but eventually decided to let it come to life between tracks 3 and 5.

Doesn't Play Well With Others (c.carry) © 2019
One day I'm gonna find me, a little island out at sea
Buy a boat, sail away, no-one there to bother me
Turn off all the news, sit and play the blues
Just do what I choose, it's one thing or another 'cos
This man doesn't play well with others
I've never really cared for sun, never really cared for fun
Bring my books, coffee too, yeah, I'll be the only one
You won't find me..here..you won't find me ...there
I'm going undercover 'cos
This man doesn't play well with others
Bridge
Call of the search, don't waste your time
Don't worry about me, I'm doing fine
I might come back one day, just to see
If I was wrong, and has the world become a better place to be?
When I get to where I'll be, I'll become a memory
Flip the bird at the world, I'll go native and be free
Brain is always screaming, I can't stop this dreaming
This is so appealing, I'm telling you brothers
This man doesn't play well with others
Bridge
One day I'm gonna find me, a little island out at sea
Buy a boat, sail away, no-one there to bother me
Turn off all the news, sit and play the blues
Just do what I choose, it's one thing or another 'cos
This man doesn't play well with others
