Migration
The aptly named Migration showed a departure for The Amboy Dukes from their original style and band line-up, with Rusty Day replacing John Drake on vocals. Opening with the instrumental track “Migration”, which showcases Nugent’s guitar talents at the forefront, this 11-track album also features Ted’s personal all-time favorite song “Good Natured Emma”. Despite its release date, this album has aged well and is guaranteed to demonstrate Nugent’s raw and unbridled energy.
Released:
1969
Record Label: Mainstream

- 6. Inside The Outside
Lyrics
Outside the inside
What a funny place to be
Tire without air
Circle in a square, me
Outside everything’s died
Beauty is far and few
Pretty little girl
Cutest in the world, you
I wonder why they thunder
But they can’t bring the rain
People that I look at seldom look back
But they all look the same
Where can I hide?
Outside the inside
Outside the inside
What a funny place to be
Gotta get a plan
Gotta make a stand
Life at times has got its crimes
But I get along okay
Nothing is too big to do
If you see it in a little way
Where can I hide?
Outside the inside

- 10. Death Is Life
Lyrics
Things are getting much worse
People will actually curse
Ladies are sighing and babies are dying
And happiness comes with a hearse
Time heals all wounds it’s been said
But try healing wounds of your dead
No matter how you try they’ll pass you right on by
You and your future’s been wed
Whats the use? There’s no excuse
Death is life
Seems that you never will learn
The only thing is to return
Do what you care and hope your not there
When all your world start to burn
Whats the use? There’s no excuse
Death is life
