Groundwork and writing [edit]

The vocal was written past the lead vocaliser, David Coverdale, and former Whitesnake guitarist, Bernie Marsden. The most notable deviation between the original and re-recorded versions are a slight change in the bluesy lyrics and pace.[x] The re-recording of the song in 1987 was advised past record labels bosses Al Coury and David Geffen as a negotiation deal with Coverdale to re-tape "Crying in the Rain" for the band'south self-titled anthology Whitesnake released in 1987.[eleven] [12] [13]

The chorus of the original version features the lines:

And here I become again on my ain
Goin' down the just road I've ever known
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone

In an interview, Coverdale explained that initially the lyrics had "out-of-stater" simply every bit that was already used in different songs he chose instead "hobo", still the latter was inverse over again to "out-of-stater" in the re-recorded '87 version, reportedly to ensure that it would not exist misheard as "human being".[ten] [12]

The song was used in the climax of romantic comedy movie Human Up (2015).[x]

Composition [edit]

The song is equanimous in the key of M major and a tempo of 91 BPM.[fourteen]
