CCR & Fogerty music and lyrics are very imaginative, so these songs awake your own imagination. All the people I know consider "Up Around the Bend" to be a great song for driving a car - endless highway... the wind blowin' straight in your face... the sun shinin' bright... the best friends next to you in the car (it might be Red Mustang... all overjoyed.......
When I hear "Who'll Stop the Rain", I've got a strong feeling that I'm sittin' near the fire with other people... something happened... flood... we're cold... got nothing to eat... no warm clothes... waiting for rescue... team spirit of the survivors...
"Lodi" makes me imagine myself in a small bar room filled with smoke... sittin' near the wall... alone... sad & tyred... no place to go......
"Nobody's Here Anymore" grags me back to the school history classroom...

Maybe some of you can give other examples
