Somewhere Down the Line

Written by John Stewart

'Somewhere Down the Line' is on "Bombs Away, Dream Babies", RSO, 1979, re-released as CD 1994 by Razor and Tie, but get "The Best of John Stewart – Turning Music Into Gold" instead. Misnamed re-release of "Bombs Away, Dream Babies" and "Dream Babies Go Hollywood" (originally RSO, 1980) with two bonus songs – 'Hard Time Town' and 'Children of The Morning'. That CD is on Polydor and was published in 1995. Ah, and the song is also on the 2003 Neon Dreams compilation CD "Songs to Drive By".

Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm… Not that hard to play!
