Baby Mellow my Mind
Make me feel, like a schoolboy on goodtime
Jugglin' nickels and dimes
Satisfied with the fish on the line

I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had

Something so hard to find
A situation, that could casualise your mind

I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had

I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had

Baby mellow my mind
Make me feel, like a schoolboy on good time
Jugglin' nickels and dimes
Satisfied with a fish on the line

Simply Red

Simply Red is a British soul and pop band. The first incarnation of the band was a punk group called The Frantic Elevators, whose seven-year run produced limited releases on local labels and ended in 1984 upon critical acclaim for their final single, “Holding Back the Years”.

By early 1985, Mick Hucknall and manager Elliot Rashman had assembled a band of local session musicians and begun to attract record company attention. The group adopted the name “Red” (after Hucknall’s nickname, denoting his hair colour) but then Mick decided it would sound better with the addition of the word ‘Simply.’

Since the mid 1980s, the band has sold more than 50 million albums.
