10/19/2010 - Right Down the Line - Gerry Rafferty

____________________________________

Good morning and Happy Tuesday!

Nearly two months ago, I officially kicked off the Ocho-rific Song o the Day with a little Gerry Rafferty tune called Baker Street.  Just a few days before I'd seen the video on a friends Facebook profile. I've always loved that song and googled to see what the details were on it.

As I googled to get the background, it occurred to me that I know at least 20 other people who like to hear the background stories of songs and bands and whatnot ... that's when the Ocho-rific Song o the Day was born.



My goal when I started was to hit 1000 page views in 2 months ... I am pleased to announce that as of right now, 6:35am on 10/19/2010 we are just 8 page views away from 1100!! :) :) :)  This pleases me immensely!

If you have friends who are interested in all of the little behind the scenes tidbits, send 'em this way!!

You'll find a link at the bottom to share this page to your Facebook, Twitter, Email, etc. - A SPECIAL thank you to you dahlings who are re-tweeting the Ocho-rific Song o the Day!!  18 people have re-tweeted this week and I am tickled about it!!

and NOW
for the Ocho-rific Song o the Day

Gerry Rafferty
Right Down the Line
1978



You know I need your love
You've got that hold over me
Long as I've got your love
You know that I'll never leave
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you woman
Right down the line

I know how much I lean on you
Only you can see
The changes that I've been through
Have left a mark on me
You've been as constant as a Northern Star
The brightest light that shines
It's been you woman right down the line

I just wanna say this is my way
Of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
'Cause you believed in me through my darkest night
Put somethin' better inside of me
You brought me into the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams
I put them all behind
And it was you woman
Right down the line

I just wanna say this is my way of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you
Everything I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more

If I should doubt myself, if I'm losing ground
I won't turn to someone else
They'd only let me down
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you woman
Right down the line
