Dit is het allereerste Earring(s)nummer waarop Barry Hay is te horen, weliswaar niet als zanger (in dit nummer is dat George Kooymans), maar als fluitist. Hij zou op dat moment zanger bij Shocking Blue worden, echter toen hij door producer Freddy Haayen werd gevraagd zanger te worden bij de Earrings en de opnames van het nummer Sound Of The Screaming Day hoorde, besloot hij zich bij de Golden Earrings aan te sluiten. Door dit besluit werd Mariska Veres zangeres bij Shocking Blue.

Songtekst
Time's fine, six o'clock and go
Now I feel alone and lucky
Get my car and drive into the fields
Where I have to work to get my money
Listen, listen oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who asks to live with you and me in any way
Sun is going up, I feel the beams on my head
The birds are whistling good morning
Near and far you can hear the sound
The sound of the working journey man
Listen, listen, oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who asks to live with you and me in any way
Listen to the sound of the screaming day
Listen to the sound of the screaming day
And there's a man who lives his life
And there's a boy who uses his knife
And there's a girl who milks a cow
They have to live this anyhow
Time's fine, six o'clock and go
Now I feel alone and lucky
Get my car and drive into the fields
Where I have to work to get my money
Listen, listen oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who'll ask to live with you and me in any way
Listen to the sound of the screaming day
Listen to the sound of the screaming day
And there's a man who lives his life
And there's a boy who uses his knife
And there's a girl who milks a cow
They have to live this any how
La, la, la, la
