"Here Comes Your Man" is a song by The Pixies which has been rumored to be about a drug deal, but in an interview with New Musical Express, Black Francis said the song was about hobos traveling by train and dying in a big earthquake in California. He started writing it when he was about 15 and was inspired by small earthquakes experienced growing up in California.
Doolittle was the first Pixies album released in the US, and this became their most popular song, getting lots of airplay on college radio stations. The Pixies never seemed too concerned about popularity, however, and didn't bother promoting this as a hit single.
