My Grandfarher Otto Kundert who owned A-OK agency booked CCR when they broke down for them to make money to get back on the road. from Lodi, CaThese comments may be really old, but I have to say for myself, I know that this song by CCR is fron Lodi, CA. AnonymousThis almost seemed like another unjustified dig at N.J.They asked to be let out of the agreement and Otto told them no, so they wrote the song about being stuck in Lodi. I knew Otto’s wife Joyce while they were both still alive Joyce told me her husband had booked CCR in the 60s and they mistakenly showed up a day early for the gig. Scott from LodiOtto Kundert booked bands to play in Lodi.Wayne Gilliland from Talladega Alabama Always like the song, just had no idea what Lodi meant.Somehow I'm missing a syllable and it's driving me nuts. The parts with:"Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi.again"Īfter "Lodi"before "again" it sounds like ccr is singing one more word. I really like CCR and try to learn all the lyrics. Dean from Birmingham, AlI love CCR and this song is awesome! Hard to believe it only got to #52!.But in the recent years I can see that Stockton's crap is slowly contaminating the City of Lodi. Maybe just a little cleaner and a tad bit safer than Stockton. Also being from the hostile town of Stockton CA, which is just a few miles south of Lodi, it is always nice going to Lodi because it seems to be such a nice little town. I could be wrong and I probably am, but this really rings a bell to me. J Steele from Stockton CaSeems to me that one day I was listening to the local radio station The Hawk and they were talking about the song "Lodi" being about a time when John Fogerty was a younger man and that he and a friend were actually "stuck in Lodi" because of a gas shortage that was happening back then.That's the word "idol" spoken or written backwards.Īs in, if we bump into each other, I'd say "Hey lodi, how you doin'?" Gamvino from Manila, PhilippinesThe town's name Lodi, was it christened as it is, or did it stand for something else?īecause here in my country, when we admire somebody, we sometimes address him or her as "lodi".Mark Lloyd from Chicago1/Who's the "friend"? 2/Who's "they" who took him?.So is that extra short syllable actually before "Lodi"? Seems like I hear "stuck in oh Lodi again". Ken from Sacramento, CaHi Chris from Germany:.
