Been a parrothead since I was 16 (1975 - before the term "parrothead" was even invented!) but the funny thing is this: while I love this song, over the years of angst, marital discord, disconnection with my roots, and 26 years of moving about, I DON'T wonder why I ever go home - it's to reconnect with my childhood friends and find solace and comfort in their love and acceptance. I live 3000 miles away from them, but I cherish their love more than anything on Earth.

True sentiments. It's hard to describe the life of an expat, but Jimmy does it well.
And yes, even after 15 years I still get itchy feet to move on somewhere else.

@fuzzypige222 He sells escapism. Keep in mind he is a business man as well as a composer, so he caters to the sheepole as well as his true fans, the Epicureans and the Stoics.

Does anyone know the key of the harmonica at the beginning of this song? It seems that most all his songs have that same key harmonica. Thanks
