When I wrote the song, I had the sea near Bombay in mind. We stayed at a hotel by the sea, and the fishermen come up at five in the morning and they were all chanting. And we went on the beach and we got chased by a mad dog - big as a donkey.

  • -- Ray Davies 雷·戴维斯

当我写这首歌的时候,我想到了孟买附近的大海。我们住在海边的一家旅馆里,渔民们早上五点就来了,他们都在唱着歌。我们去了海滩,我们被一只疯狗追赶——大得像驴子。
