So Tired
Savoy Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In each hotel I stay, got a suitcase for a home
Guitar in my hand, travelin' with the band
Flyin' everyday, travelin' across the land
So tired, so tired
Got you on my mind, every time I go away
In each hotel I stay, It's getting harder every time
Suitcase in my hand, killing one night stands
So tired, so tired
Travelin' on the road,each and every day
In each hotel I stay, got a suitcase for a home
Got a suitcase in my hand, killing one night stands
Flyin' everyday,travelin' across the land
So tired, so tired, so tired, so tired
The song 'So Tired' by Savoy Brown is a deep and poignant reflection on the life of a traveling musician. The opening lines suggest that the singer is constantly on the road, moving from one hotel to another, and carrying his whole life in a suitcase. He also carries his guitar, which is his only companion on this lonely journey. The lyrics highlight the tedious nature of this lifestyle, with each day being repetitive and mundane. The constant travel only increases his weariness, and he longs for a break from this life.
The chorus 'So Tired' is a recurring theme in the song, which represents the exhaustion and burden that the singer feels. Although he has the opportunity to travel and perform, he is tired of the constant struggle and the stress that comes with it. He misses his loved ones, and every time he goes away from them, it only gets harder to leave.
The final verse highlights the loneliness that comes with one-night stands and the endless travel. The singer is just a transient figure in different cities and towns, not making any close relationships or connections. He is moving so much that he has no time to achieve any meaningful relationships. The song expresses the sadness and monotony of being a traveling musician, where the glamour of the lifestyle is overshadowed by the pain of the constant travel and loneliness.
