Apparently he wrote it while sitting in rainy England, remembering when his dad was stationed in a desert area. Many of us thought is was about an LSD trip at the time.

Good afternoon

Happy Mother's Day! I deal with those earworms nightly. I took your advice though. When they wake me up, I act as though I am chewing gum for a few seconds and then the recurring song lyrics go away.

Good Afternoon

Pat, I want to wish you a wonderful and Happy Mother's Day!  I had to smile when I read your post because I can just imagine what it was like when everyone was at your house.  I was an only child so for me the more the merrier.  I love big family affairs as long as everyone is getting along.  If not then I would probably want to sit quietly off by myself.

I looked for it. A band called America. I was thinking it was someone else. But yeah, a good song!

I don't think many cars could have been around then. Hopefully, you were searching for a tranquil memory. Happy Mothers Day.
