Fogerty, John - Lodi Lyrics






Just about a year ago
I set out on the road
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Lookin' for a pot of gold
Things got bad, and things got worse
I guess you will know the tune
Oh, Lord, stuck in Lodi again

Rode in on the Greyhound
I'll be walkin' out if I go
I was just passin' through
Must be seven months or more
Ran out of time and money
Looks like they took my friends
Oh, Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

The man from the magazine
Said I was on my way
Somewhere I lost connections
Ran out of songs to play
I came into town, a one-night stand
Looks like my plans fell through
Oh, Lord, stuck in Lodi again

If I only had a dollar
For ev'ry song I've sung
Ev'ry time I've had to play
While people sat there drunk
You know, I'd catch the next train
Back to where I live
Oh, Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

    This guy stole that song from Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR). No originality.

  5. S.... m....

    Fogerty is a legend!!

  6. V.... B....

    Só Rock Roll. Show!

  7. C.... s....

    John wrote this song if you watch legends basically it’s about him leaving the band or the record company taking his friends / band mates and his own brother! John got hosed big time!!

    C.... s....

    Fogerty was only 23 when he wrote this song and any later problems with the band he brought on himself with his greed and control issues.Who could blame his band mates for becoming annoyed and want some say when he would sneak into the studio at night and redo their parts to suit himself.All comes back to him.

    C.... s....

    You said Bruse he wrote all the songs not just Lodi but all of them !! John didn’t even play ccr songs for years after they broke up. And as far as him sneaking into the studio to change things on the songs he did all the producing of the music so it is in his right to do so.

  8. M.... A....

    1969: Wow, this song is amazing!"
    2019: "Wow, this song is amazing!"

    Fogerty sings a line, then expertly plays a guitar lick in response. He did this before the word "synergy" existed.

    John Has So Much Talent..💕

  50. E.... ....

    Of all the live versions I have heard so far (on YouTube) this one is the best. A fucking cracking rendition of a great rock song.

  51. i.... ....

    Saw this guy live 10 or 11 years ago and it was one of the loudest shows I've ever been at. I don't know if it was on purpose or if they didn't dial it in right going from a stadium to an arena but John's amps were set at 11 that night.

  52. E.... H....

    I have LIVED this song. There's HOPE though...always hope.

  53. J.... T....

    Sensacional, demais. Uma das preferidas...

  54. F.... O....

    The only way to ever play Lodi.
    John I love you but the version on Wrote A Song For Everyone just doesn't do it. I'm kind of curious as to how much Lodi has changed between CCR then vs CCR (1/16) now and Fogerty then vs Now.

    F.... O....

    a lot!! gotten much bigger, and not so nice any more

    F.... O....

    prebooomer anybody got a video on how to play this version?

  55. N.... G....

  65. E.... K....

    Give John a Telecaster and a Les Paul and there's nothing he can't do. BTW, there's more than one Lodi in the US, but this song is supposedly about Lodi, California (at least that's what it says on Wikipedia).

    E.... K....

    right on man it is in California right on highway 99 just north of Stockton

  66. G.... O....

    John Fogerty as of his best side of giving a great gig! Awesome!

    CCR was the small time band though only now that we enjoy their music compared to the heavy metal bands like Grand Funk, Uriah Heep, Deep purple, black Sabbath etc.
