Mix Tape Songs About Trains # 5 The Monkees


Side 1 Track 5 2 mins 44. Hey, hey they're The Monkees. So much of their stuff is still among the best pop tracks ever written. This was their debut single. A backdoor protest song with the 'don't know if I'm ever coming home', as the giveaway. Reputedly about a soldier on his way to Vietnam. Clarksville is a town in Tennessee. Coincidentally or otherwise there was a large army base nearby.
