Always the kid in the back of the class.<\/p>\n<p>Anyhow, somehow, over the years, I&#8217;ve developed an affection for these lyrics &#8212; but never been all that comfortable with what had been a basic 3-cowboy-chord\u00a0 song. It&#8217;s still only got 3 or 4 chords (depending on how you count, let&#8217;s not get theoretical) but I sort of like the new version&#8217;s sloppy bounce.<\/p>\n<p>[2018-03-02 <em>New mix\/remaster; the lo fi preview tracks from BandCamp and SoundCloud were killing me, you could barely hear the jingly things on the big tambourine that supplies the &#8216;rhythm&#8217; for the track.<\/em>]<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 400px; height: 258px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3409804489\/size=large\/bgcol=333333\/linkcol=0f91ff\/artwork=small\/track=3053602819\/transparent=true\/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tkmajor.bandcamp.com\/album\/gone-is-gone\">Gone Is Gone by TK Major<\/a><\/iframe><br \/>\n<iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" allow=\"autoplay\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/407735124&#038;color=%23ff5500&#038;auto_play=false&#038;hide_related=false&#038;show_comments=true&#038;show_user=true&#038;show_reposts=false&#038;show_teaser=true\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Who\u2019ll Stop Lorraine?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve known Lorraine since we were kids<br \/>\nand I\u2019ve always been amazed<br \/>\nEvery time she went too damn far I thought<br \/>\nWho\u2019ll stop Lorraine?<br \/>\nI saw her hunt down that family man<br \/>\nhe was doomed from that first day<br \/>\nI saw her rip his heart into little tiny shreds and I thought,<br \/>\nWho\u2019ll stop Lorraine?<\/p>\n<p><em>From the hotel bar to the airport lounge<br \/>\nEveryone knows her name<br \/>\nOver and over I ask myself,<br \/>\nWho\u2019ll Stop Lorraine?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Finally one day I\u2019d had enough<br \/>\nI sat her down looked her in the eye<br \/>\nLorraine I love you, girl, but straighten up,<br \/>\n\u2019cause, Lorraine, you\u2019re wreckin\u2019 people\u2019s lives<\/p>\n<p><em>From the hotel bar to the airport lounge<br \/>\nEveryone knows your name<br \/>\nOver and over they ask themselves,<br \/>\nWho\u2019ll Stop Lorraine?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I never thought Id see a tear in her eye<br \/>\nI never thought I\u2019d see into her soul<br \/>\nbut since that day she\u2019s come so damn far<br \/>\nGod I\u2019ve come to love that girl so<\/p>\n<p><em>From the hotel bar to the airport lounge<br \/>\nEveryone knows her name<br \/>\nOver and over they ask themselves,<br \/>\nWhatever became of Lorraine?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new version of this song written back in July, 2001.
