Lord Byron had a lot of luggage
He took it when he traveled far and wide
He didn't get to bathe very often
But he liked to change his clothes all the time
I had a little friend named Mister Johnson
Who always tried to be like me
He rose to the heights of this profession
He was hard on his friends and family
Still out here in the wind and rain
Look a little older but I feel no pain
And it stands to reason
I'm still looking for love
I went to the Henley Regatta
Intending to put out to sea
They pronounced me persona non grata
Goes to show that you can't come and go
as you please
Still out here in the wind and rain
Look a little older but I feel no pain
And it stands to reason
I'm still looking for love
Looking for a needle in a haystack
It's pretty hard to find
Every dog has his day, Jack
I'm still waiting for mine.
Still out here in the wind and rain
A whole lot older but I feel no pain
And it stands to reason
I'm still looking for love

Born in Chicago, Illinois, Zevon spent his childhood in California where he began playing music at age 15. After working as a session musician for artists like Linda Ronstadt and The Everly Brothers, Zevon made his solo debut in 1976 with the album "Warren Zevon". His music often explored dark and ironic themes, blending rock, folk, and country influences. Some of his most famous songs include "Werewolves of London", "Lawyers, Guns and Money", and "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner". Zevon collaborated with numerous prominent artists, including Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Nicks, and Jackson Browne. His music was influenced by a diverse range of sources, including Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, and The Beatles. Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2002, Zevon died the following year at age 56.
