Before I die, I'd like to do something nice
Take my hand and I'll take it for a ride
You hit me yesterday because I made you cry
So before we die let me do something nice, ohh
I want to buy you something
But I don't have any money
No, I don't have any money
I want to buy you something
But I don't have any money
No, I don't have any money

And if I had a car, I would trade in my car
If I had a gun, I would trade in my gun
Honey, we ran from the country when we rushed to the city
And now there's nothing to be done, there's nothing to be done
There's nothing to be done, there's nothing to be done, no
I want to buy you something
But I don't have any money
No, I don't have any money

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
this is the wrong song. Maybe another band. :|
So many emotions into this song!!!!
"if i had a gun i would train in my gun honey we ran from the country when we rushed to the city and now there's nothing to be done"

I want to buy you something, but I don't have any money No I don't have any money
Simple.
A person. Who is broke. Complain it on a song to make his friend understand.
A guy wants to cheer up his girl by buying her something but is broke Love this song
Taking account Jonny's history, this is probably when he first moved to New York. It's no secret rent is high in NYC so he's a broke artist with no money to spend on his S.O. This explains why he doesn't have a car. As for the part about the other person he also mentioned in an interview that he had a boyfriend within a week of moving there. This results in some problems because first of all, due to having a very homophobic family in a small town he has pretty much no practice with dating. Secondly he's still very young and new to the world. The lyrics are pretty straight forward but I thought I might add context.
I heard this song a long time ago when I was 10 years old and all these money things are just bringing me to the point where I just don’t want to do something and just want to relax and have fun but I understand that everyone should have a decent amount in their pockets to have a good time. In this song he is pretty new to this world and looking for a place to stay, I have been in a situation like this and I just used paydaysay.com/what-are-emergency-loans-for-rent.php this one to help myself.
