Jimmy was a winner back in his home town
People came to see him play from miles around
Then one morning he woke up and looked himself in the face
Said i'm going round in circles i ain't gettin' no place
All this working for peanuts is getting way out of hand
I've had about as much of it as i can stand
Gonna' drop, drop everything and run
Drop, drop everything and run
I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights
Goodbye small time from tonight
Gonna' drop, drop everything and run
Jimmy gave his notice headed down to the smoke
Well it wasn't too much later he was hungry and broke
He'd been paying out good money for a hole in the wall
Gigging every night and earning nothing at all
Said the work that i've been dreaming of is way out of reach
I've got to be a bigger pebble on a smaller beach
Gonna' drop, drop everything and run
Drop, drop everything and run
I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights
Now it's 'hello home town, bye tonight'
Gonna' drop, drop everything and run
Oooh aaahhh that crazy jimmy
Oooh aaahhh
Back amongst his friends he had to swallow his pride
'cause he thought the grass was greener on the other side
Gonna' drop, drop everything and run
Drop, drop everything and run
I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights
Now it's 'hello home town, bye tonight'
Gonna' drop, drop everything
Drop, drop everything
Drop, drop everything and run
Dr. Feelgood is a British pub rock band formed in mid-1970s. The name of the band, slang for heroin or for doctors who are prepared to overprescribe drugs, derives from the American bluesman Willie Perryman (also known as "Piano Red") who in 1962 recorded the song "Dr Feel-Good" with his group "Dr Feelgood and The Interns". The song was then covered by several British beat groups, including Johnny Kidd and The Pirates, who used it as the B-side to one of their singles. It is from here, according to some sources, that the name was taken by the band. Dr. Feelgood achieved great success in the 1970s with an energetic and bluesy sound, influencing several punk and new wave bands that followed. The group has released numerous successful albums and singles, including "Down by the Jetty", "Milk and Honey" and "I'm a Stranger Here".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
