HIT THE GROUND RUNNING (John A Spittles) Hit the ground running, hit the ground running It´s our time, time to die, that is all that I can see And our chance, chance to fly, is lost on the breeze Together we were so alone choking each other with time So I’ll hit the ground running hit the ground running And with pride by my side, I´ll walk my way Wash these hands of you and your kind, with a brand new day Down by the river she would lie, on her back and through her teeth She put a spell on me, and that made me blind And what hides between your legs won’t save you A belly of lie´s inside your head will fail you You gotta hit the ground running, hit the ground running

about

Recorded after the band got home from a 27 shows in 30 days tour of Europe , the Johnny Casino original 'Hit the ground running' sounds like a amped up ,soulful organ drenched Sea Shanty and is backed with a cover of Bob Seger's first single with the Last herd, the classic r'n'b stomp 'Heavy Music'. As we say when ya roll the dice with JC you always come up aces.
