This is a cover of the John Fogerty (CCR) song!

About the song:

The song "Lodi," describes the plight of a musician who has wandered into Lodi, California (pronounced "low-die"), a small agricultural town about 70 miles from John Fogerty's hometown of Berkeley. After playing in local bars, he finds himself detesting the town but unable to raise bus or train fare to leave. Fogerty later said he had never actually visited Lodi before writing this song, and simply picked it for the song because it had "the coolest sounding name." However, the song unquestionably references the town's reputation as an uninteresting farm settlement, although the narrator does not mention any specific complaints about Lodi. The song's chorus, "Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again," has been the theme of several city events in Lodi, CA.
