Yes, it is better.

I'd understood that he wrote it with them in mind, but didn't know (until just now) that it was because they rejected his first offer of Suffragette City:

yeh, wiki says he wrote it specifically for them. That's probably right. They had choice of a tune and didn't like Sufferagett City. That's probably what I heard and the many years have rearranged the furniture in my brain. Foot in mouth

"Spirit in the Knight" from 1973. The Big Man (Clarence Clemons) wails.

Sometimes A Check Just Ain't Enough - Patty Smyth

But there's a danger in checking somebody too much,
and it's sad when you know it's your game you can't trust.
There's a reason why people don't win when they should.
Baby, sometimes, a check just ain't enough.
