Thanks for posting this! Although it's a quiet song, it it evokes such vivid images of childhood wonder, innocence, and bliss, all spilling over into adulthood. He has so many songs that are gems.
Ne'r heard of Jesse Winchester before this, nor this song, but he did Yankee Lady real nice...he might need a little more of what Pete Seeger called "Sing Out" (vocals nearly inaudible)
I could listen to Jesse singing this song forever. I first heard it when I was at Antioch College in 1970. i am SO glad he's still singing it. Now i just have to hear him live! THANKS FOR THIS!
I can't leave a blank comment page here! Not for Jesse! ;) I am delighted to have such splendid videos of this great man posted at last! THank you Chris!!!

I've never heard this song, or Jesse Winchester before...his vocals at nearly too low a level to make out ...though he did Yankee Lady real nice!
