Listened to it again. Lots of great parts and it is touching, It is just that second verse that doesn't fit to me. I laugh when it is singing about the biscuits and the beans.
@gatormom1972 Saw them recently at The Beacon and really liked the whole song. Went home, figured out the chords and wrote down the lyrics. Played it about 5 times and slowly came to the same conclusion. No Jackson Browne here (but nice voice and melody). The "chicken wing" and other clanky references do smack a bit of Zevon, tho.
@gatormom1972 did you listen to the lyrics? that story brings images of a father who's lost his son. coping with these emotions through food and just getting over it the best way he can. whatever brings him comfort. And the last verse is a better love story in a verse than the entire Twilight series....
Ok, I was prepared to be blown away. However, this was incredibly corny. Especially the mashed potatoes verse. Nice sounding voice though! And he is talented..just bad lyrics
Tell everyone about this band. Tweet it, Face Book it, write it on a napkin and leave it on a table for someone else to see - David Goldsmith is a fantastic writer and good song writing is alive and healthy in Dawes.

I was not a fan of this song at first (more about the second verse), but now, i can't stop listening to this clip. Even better than the album.
