The Great Lost Ramones Song

Slug shoulda been the contender. Originally written for the Rocket To Russia album but unreleased until the All The Stuff And More album, , Slug has been covered by the likes of The Queers, The Huntingtons, and Riverboat Gamblers.

A tale of love lost, it chokes me up everytime.





The lyrics follow-

Lying in bed one summer's night
Everything wasn't alright
Something started crawling on me
A S-L-U-G

I saw her walking in the woods last night
And I knew something wasn't right
S-L-U-G
A no no no no, why'd she have to go-oh-oh-oh?

I saw her walking in the woods last night
And I knew something wasn't right
S-L-U-G
A no no no no, why'd she have to go-oh-oh-oh?

And I know that if I had her back today
Yeah I know
(I know)
I know
(I know)
Why is it always this way?

Lying in bed one summer's night
Everything wasn't alright
Something started crawling on me
A S--L-U-G

I saw her walking in the woods last night
And I knew something wasn't right
S-L-U-G
A no no no no, why'd she have to go-oh-oh-oh?

I saw her walking in the woods last night
And I knew something wasn't right
S-L-U-G
A no no no no, why'd she have to go-oh-oh-oh?

And I know that if I had her back today
Yeah I know
(I know)
I know
(I know)
Why is it always this way?

S-L-U-G, S-L-U-G, S-L-U-G, S-L-U-G
S-L-U-G, S-L-U-G, S-L-U-G, S-L-U-G
