Stealers Wheel is a Scottish folk rock/rock band formed in Paisley, Renfrewshire in 1972 by former school friends Joe Egan and Gerry Rafferty. Egan and Rafferty were school friends from the age of 9. The band broke up in 1975 and were re-formed in 2008. Neither Egan nor Rafferty are involved with the new version of the band.
In the early 1970s, the band was considered to be the British version of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, and after two unsuccessful singles, they came to worldwide fame with their hit, “Stuck in the Middle With You”.
Stuck in the Middle With You
http://djallyn.org/media/stuck_in_the_middle_with_you.flvWell I don’t know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain’t right,
I’m so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I’m wondering how I’ll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.Yes I’m stuck in the middle with you,
And I’m wondering what it is I should do,
It’s so hard to keep this smile from my face,
Losing control, yeah, I’m all over the place,
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.Well you started out with nothing,
And you’re proud that you’re a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please…. Please…..Trying to make some sense of it all,
But I can see that it makes no sense at all,
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor,
‘Cause I don’t think that I can take anymore
