Runnin' On Time

from Seven Years by Matt Joe Gow

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Recorded and produced by Matt Joe Gow and Andrew Pollock `Seven Years' takes its title from the chorus lyrics of a song (`Steady Life') from Matt's debut album `The Messenger': ``Seven years are gonna change a man . . . ''.

    Seven years have also changed some songs. Take the track `Down River' -- initially titled `The Messenger' and recorded at Sing Sing Studios with Nash Chambers for Matt's debut. The song evolved via years of touring and has been reborn as a different beast on this record.

    And time alters people, too, of course.

    For example, the third verse on `Georgia Rose' speaks about the death of Matt's grandfather and his memories of him as a child; `Right by You' documents the end of a long-term relationship that had begun in Matt's hometown (Dunedin, New Zealand) and finished in Melbourne; while `Runnin' on Time' is the sound of a band on the road, trying to win over new audiences with some loud rock 'n' roll.

    A diverse set of songs ranging from foot stomping rock 'n roll numbers and heartfelt americana belters through to harmony laden shimmering alt country and spacious ballads, 'Seven Years' contains seven years worth of Matt Joe Gow's finest songwriting and was the beginning of his journey as a producer.

lyrics

Runnin' On Time

Some friends of mine and me stayed up all through the night
Rockin' pretty steady 'til the sky went light
I'm gonna make you believe
You're gonna see what I see

Your Mama said I want you home on the double
That rock 'n roll music ain't nothing but trouble
But who you gonna believe"
I know you see what I see

If you want it well I'm Runnin' on time
back to where the music where it sound so right
more than once, more than twice
Let it roll all night

My little girl nothing wrong with what we making
Rock 'n roll music got your whole body shakin'
And now I know you believe
Yah, you see what I see

If you want it well I'm Runnin' on time
back to where the music well it sound so right
more than once, more than twice
Let it roll all night

If you want it well I'm Runnin' on time
back to where the lovin' well it felt so right
more than once, more than twice
Let it roll all night
