It's about a guy who's going to do something that is probably a crime, but he has to do it for his family.

A beautiful song.

Two friends are planning a robbery because they need the money for their families. They plan to take the money and run. They're doing the wrong thing for the right reasons.

It's a very beautiful song. It reminds me a bit of Dry County in it's epic tale. Jon writes some great ones!

Becky, Becky, Becky...

The storytelling in Right Side of Wrong totally reminds me of Tom Waits. And I'm not even talking about the line-stealing in Open all night.
I'm listening to the whole CD for the 3rd time now and the picture's getting clearer. I love it.

He he, you noticed it too! Woohoo! Right Side Of Wrong is definitely early Tom! Most like 'Ol' 55'! I like the story in it, bit Springsteeny/Nebraska stylee. Bruce has also got one on the 'Ghost of Tom Joad album' that's a bit like that storywise.... Nice.

Yeah, I'm really enjoying Right Side Of Wrong, a beautiful but sad song. How good is it that we can finally discuss Bounce based on our listening experiences rather than debate about what it WOULD be like, as we did for so many months. Bounce rocks! Great job fellas!!!
