Guilty by Randy Newman.
A friend, Mike, and I use to jam, often in shopping center parking lots. He sang bits of this song, and it interested me. I look up the lyrics and was struck by the desperation. That is a blues song if there ever was one. I created the backing track in Band in a Box, and then dubbed my voice in instruments to the backing track. The song has been recorded many times.

This is my song. This is the 3rd time I'd performed it. This was a few days before July 4. The band is Pete Johnson's Show Band. We were at the Del Mar Fair Grounds at the San Diego County Fair. Flubbed my own song, but had a good time anyway.
