Trivia, story behind the song, etc.
“Hooking Bull at The Landing” takes its name and origin from Guy’s father Ossie Davis. At the dinner table, Ossie was known to let the expression fly “Hookin bull at the landing, ‘won’t let me by Lord, Lord, won’t let me by.” It refers to a hobo being pulled off the train by a railroad bull (police) and was likely a metaphor for hard luck and tough times.
