Last Child Lyrics

Cover art for Last Child lyrics by Aerosmith

I remember the anticipation of this album’s release, it was a year after another great album of theirs called “Toys in the attic” and before that “Get your wings“, everyone was waiting.

I remember listening to it for the first 1st time Like it was yesterday and I remember when it was over I was left wanting more, not only because it was so short but also because it was so good. This was clearly Aerosmith at therapy, at least it was to me.

Anyway, I’m in agreement that he was a country boy who moved to the city, Although at one point he says “Gotta get back to the real nitty-gritty“, which makes me think of speed and urban life.

I’ve texted my boys many times saying “Ma she’s a cookin, got da eats on da table” and they laugh.

Great album from a great band at their peak.
