Stammy was that kind of guy
who could never guess the time of day
Spends his hours burnin' out
but he still has bills to pay
Not about to look for work
he says he wants to be a star
Some folks lose and some folks win
and he's not far
He's not far

Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
not far from the fork in the road
Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
not far from the fork in the road

In your local neighborhood
there's a wildman runnin' free
Underneath his changing face
hides his true identity
There's no way you'd ever guess
til he picks up his guitar
Some folks lose and some folks win
and he's not far

Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
not far from the fork in the road
Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
not far from the fork in the road

Not far
He's not far from do or die
Not far
but some folks never even try

Stammy was that kind of guy
Not the guy you used to know
Saw him just the other night
He just wasn't with the flow
That's more than I can say for you
happy soldier that you are
You don't know the word begin
but you're not far.

Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
not far from the fork in the road
Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
You're not far from the fork in the road

Not far not far not far not far not far not far not far not far
Hey

Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
not far from the fork in the road
Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
not far from the fork in the road
Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
Not far, not far, not far from the fork in the road
not far from the fork in the road
yeah yeah yeah yeah
Let's go that way

Song Comments

1978..
This is alot of fun,really quirky, melodic n sunny.....A kinda mixture of 60s psych and 70s pop..Happy hippy witty new wave .. Moves along with gusto n purpose.. Good eccentric pop is always cool with me..

Great solos
Sometimes in the 60s, guitar solos used to explode from your turntable, the solo in this Neg Tendencies' song does just that. It takes place after the bridge at 1:18 into the song. btw, caution, this song is so catchy with one listen it will be in your head all day! At 3:07 there's also a cheezy organ solo and the song ends with a kazoo solo.

Over The Moon
Saw this on the Pipeline - brilliant song!

The Best of Time's
a song that has amazed some people by its sheer catchiness.

Eve's Hooky Cookie
If this isn't catchy nothing is.

Betty
Creedence meets Father Time.
