The story behind the song

This song was written by Phil Lynott during his recovery from hepatitis, a period which found him in the hospital with an acoustic guitar, penning the tracks for the 1976 album Johnny the Fox. Despite the personal challenges, the song became a hit single in the UK. It emerges from a time of reflection and creation for the band's principal songwriter. At its heart, it plays like a direct, no-nonsense statement, perhaps born from a moment of clarity.
