it has a Missisiipi John Hurt feeling to it, like "lay me a palate" ... so beautiful ... when you're feeling really down on yourself, this is the tonic ...
This is the song my dad and I are going to dance to at my wedding. My dad has been singing me John Prine songs since before I was born and this has always been a favorite.
to lynnpwest....you had teams of workers on your side...and your son's every day and we understand,,,sorry for your loss.........I work with teams of psych nurses...know how you and your son bonded...good...you're a good mom........nice of you to bring him music...John Prine is a very compassionate lyricist...he is real and human...
@lynnpwest I am crying reading this. Actual tears coming out of my eyes. God bless you and God rest his soul. He is finally at peace. With all the love in the world, from another person who suffers from mental illness.

This song is gorgeous and Prine is a master song writer and singer... but he could work on looking like he meant it a little more...

This song holds special meaning for me. My deceased son was schizophrenic-
affective and spent over a year in a mental institution. I kept him supplied with
John Prine's music and other music too. I can remember him singing and
beaming (smiling) when he and I would play this song. I was beaming too. Lynn

@lynnpwest
I'm beaming in part because you and your son beamed...let us all beam together...
