. . . . now I had rather stopped supporting and following (listening at all) to Clapton since his reversion to right wing conspiracy theory type . . . . . . .(sic) but this is from an album bought when it came out and it is a favourite blues classic and theme; the meet me at the bottom storyline fascinates me for some reason. What is the song about?; where is the bottom and why does he need his running shoes?
Put it in your pocket, leave it in your shoe
Plug it in your socket, flush it down the loo (sic?!)
Hey baby, show me something new
Put it in your hat, put it in your can
Feed it to your cat, share it with your band
Hey baby, help me understand
Well they're fighting in the kitchen and they're fighting in the hall
Up against the dark and up against the wall
Why don't you meet me in the bottom, baby, bring your running shoes
which clear childishness is clear cut it’s based on a Willie Dixon number
Well now, baby meet me in the bottom
Bring me my running shoes
Well now, baby meet me in the bottom
Bring me my running shoes
Well, I'll come out the window
I won't have time to lose
When you see me streaking by
Please don't be late
When you see me streaking by
Please don't be late
Well, when you see me moving
Though my life is at stake
Well, I hope you'll see me
When I come streaking by
Well, I hope you'll see me
When I come streaking by
She got a bad old man
You know I'm too young to die
Oh, I got to leave here
Get caught in there
I got to come out and run now
No I ain't gonna do it no more, mister
Which I suggest is quite explanatory and relates to a relationship Clappers was all too familiar with!? (sic!)
