Song 175 (Lobo--"A Big Red Kite")

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51EbskO2AoL._SL500_AA280_.jpg

Last night I was unwinding playing along with random songs from my iPod's playlist on my bass and this one came on. It's a good song that I have always really liked; a nice song to unwind to. I love the mixing of this album a lot and the musicianship as well, especially the bass lines.

Not surprising, there are no versions of this song on YouTube or any other service that I can find. That's the problem with a lesser-known artist on the Warner label.

Here are at least the lyrics:

I know I owe you a better time
Then the way that I've been
But something's messing with my mind
And it's not giving in

They say that I should want to be
A man who leads us all
But every time I look I see
Another leader fall.

So I'm gonna sit in a green field
And fly a big red kite I'm gonna
Send my mind up the string and I'm
gonna get it right.

They say that I should want to have
A big bank account
What Uncle Sam don't take from me
Man I don't need to count.

So I'm gonna sit in a green field
And fly a big red kite I'm gonna
Send my mind up the string and I'm
gonna get it right.

They say that I should want to stand
For what I don't believe
I'm sitting thinking to myself
What kind of man could leave.

So I'm gonna sit in a green field
And fly a big red kite I'm gonna
Send my mind up the string and I'm
gonna get it right.
