About This Quote
The song ‘I Got One Foot In The Golden Life’ was written by Jerry Jeff Walker and is a tribute to a man who went from a small town in the southwest of the U.S. to being a one-time country music superstar. However, he can’t seem to get past his former lifestyle and has been torn between the two lifestyles for many years. The song describes how he tries to keep his foot in the golden life but also trying to find his feet in the gutter. He wants to be like everybody else, yet he can’t seem to escape his unique identity.
