Head East

Head East is an American hard rock band originally from East Central Illinois. The band was formed by vocalist John Schlitt, guitarist Danny Piper, keyboardist Roger Boyd, bassist Larry Boyd, and drummer Steve Huston. They met and formed the band while John, Roger, and Larry were studying at the University of Illinois, Steve was at Eastern Illinois University 45 miles away and Danny was not in college. Eventually both Larry and Danny dropped out of the band and were replaced by Mike Somerville (guitar) and Dan Birney (bass). The band achieved success in the Midwest during the 1970s, but fell into obscurity in the following decades on both coasts, but remained strong in the Midwest and South. more »

Most of my life has been hit and run
Look for me two times and the second time I'm gone
Throwing stones at your window
Hanging by my toes from your tree
Keep me out any longer, girl
You'll make a monkey out of me

People you meet
Up and down the line
All wondering why
You can't stop on a dime
Only thing to do
Is just let your monkey shine

I'm looking for a girl from Alabama
Bottle of whiskey from Tennessee
Well, there's a warm wind blowing around me
But, I'm cold and lonely
And I need some company

I'm looking for a girl from Alabama
Bottle of whiskey from Tennessee
Well, there's a warm wind blowing around me
But, I'm cold and lonely
And I need some company
Yeah, I need some company
