Average song rating Written and sung by leadguitarist Jimmy McCulloch. Although he sings better than Denny Laine, his first lines makes it clear to me that he was either pretty nervous when his vocals were recorded, or he's just not such a good singer. After two minutes, I'm pretty bored. One can see Jimmy's guitarsolo (which in itself is fine) coming for miles. The song becomes a bit more interesting after four minutes. I usually don't listen to it that long. Bobber April 11, 2012
Average song rating Paul encourages his Wings mates to contribute music, and for me this is the strongest of the non-Paul efforts on this album. Nice tune, cool sound effects, and a terrific transition into the ending riff. Written and sung by Jimmy McCulloch, it is curious that both of his Wings contributions are strong anti-drugs messages ("Medicine Jar" being the other). Too bad he didn't take his own advice.

Lyrics

Doctor Tom is getting on,
All he does is sign his name.
I get things my brainbox sings,
But I'll go down again.

Play with fire, getting higher,
Higher than a nine foot flame.
My soul is pent and so's the rent,
But I'll go down again.

Wino junko can't say no,
Wino junko, eyes aglow.
Pill freak, spring a leak, you can't say no
Till you go down again

This and treat you crazy cat,
Flying sideways once again.
I'm in a spin it makes me grin,
But I'll go down again.

Wino junko can't say no,
Wino junko, eyes aglow.
Pill freak, spring a leak, you can't say no
Till you go down again.

Till you go down again.
Till you go down again.
Till you go down.

Take what I need until I bleed,
People will say I've gone insane.
Ain't scared to die, it's such a high,
Till I go down again.

Wino junko can't say no,
Wino junko, eyes aglow.
Pill freak, spring a leak, you can't say no,
Till you go down again.

Wino junko can't say no,
Wino junko, eyes aglow.
Pill freak, spring a leak, you can't say no,
Till you go down again.

Wino junko.
