Jethro Tull - Driving Song Lyrics






Will they ever stop drivin' me?
Have they ever taken time to see
That I need some rest
if I'm to do my best?

Can I please stop workin' so hard?
They just tell me gotta close it hard.
Got to think of my health.
Can I be by myself?

Oh, they tell me I'll be home someday.
Well I doubt it if I continue this way,
`cause this hard life I've led
is makin' me dead.

  16. s.... ....

    perfect for a Saturday morning when I have mandatory overtime though I busted my ass for them all week

  17. M.... Y....

    My favorite Jethro Tull song.

    M.... Y....

    Stand Up? I always listened to this tune on Living in the Past

    M.... Y....

    DARK PASSAGES, the Web Series living in the past is an album which includes many songs from this was, stand up, benefit and other jetro tull albums

    M.... Y....

    This is a great song- My 67th favorite Tull song

    M.... Y....

    what? Aqualung, Hymn 43, and most of that album is better than this

    M.... Y....

    Mr_x 1992 sounds like you need a Tull class. Aqualung is a great album that made big on the charts. And I LOVE Aqualung, but it’s not by any means the best music written by Ian Anderson. Open up and listen to A Passion Play, Songs from the Wood, Stormwatch, Benefit, Too Old to Rock n Roll, Broadsword and see~>from the light (aqualung) into ever day(the rest of JT’s great catalogue)!!!

  18. T.... W....

    Always cool to meet Tull fans. This is one of my many favs by JT. Jethro Tull remains solidly in my top 5 bands. Top 2 actually. Thanks for sharing this tune.

    T.... W....

    What are the others, please share your tastes? (:

    T.... W....

    @Antonietta Mancinelli In addition to Tull, my top 5 include Yes, Pink Floyd, Led Zep and Genesis. Other contenders are The Who, The Beatles, Moody Blues, Queen, AC/DC, Traffic and Cat Stevens.

    T.... W....

    @Travis White Thanks man, I'll borrow something from that list (:

    T.... W....

    JT, Camel, Gentle Giant, Deep Purple, UFO

    T.... W....

    I forgot Yes and Emerson Lake and Palmer on that list too

  19. G.... L....

    Great and challenging training for wannabe (beginner) drummers like me!

    G.... L....

    +György L - Clive was tough, wasn't he? Love Barrie too, but Clive was more jazzy/bluesy.

  20. S.... ....

    The precise moment for listenning to this.

  21. D.... G....

    Gets me right down there- Good stuff

    D.... G....

    d.... S....

    Only 4 albums i did not like and only one i hated !!!!!!!

  25. A.... ....

    @amstell13 becuse ..you know

  26. D.... ....

    @gobceaglesgo "Living In The Past" was a compilation of B sides and rarities, and this track was actually the U.K. single B side in 1969 of the song "Living In The Past". Both these songs were recorded during the "Stand Up" sessions, and feature on various CD reissues of this album since. So, I guess that was the poster's logic in using the cover.

  27. g.... ....

    stand up was a great album , but this song is on living in the past

    g.... ....

    From comment above:

    the Web Series living in the past is an album which includes many songs from this was, stand up, benefit and other jetro tull albums
