RATHBONE HOTEL
The Back-To-The-Roots Album [Liner Notes]
The songbook of a journey to the southwest of the U.S.A., recorded in the CBS Studios in London, produced functionally and efficiently, without gimmicks, by the former Genesis and Camel producer David Hitchcock. A compendium of basic rock music in the classic Improved style, at times drenched in mellotron, at times tequila flavoured, and enhanced with the singular colours of slide and pedal steel guitar.

Mortgage
I don´t think about tomorrow, no
Tomorrow takes my girl away
Puts a mortgage on a free man´s day
A mortgage on my day
A mortgage I can´t pay
Even in the drifts of snow
´bout the range of the buffalo
I will always keep you warm
Keep you from the howling storm
My love she´s not asking
I don´t know what´s on your mind |
