I was stationed in Meridian for 4 years (if your in the area, you know the GMen tucked a Naval base with Marines and Sailors there) and never heard this song until I got home back to Maine.... so many memories there in Meridian. I know I'm gunna head back down. I'm a northern boy but belong in the south.

I normally prefer when she does covers (Wrecking Ball is an absolutely gorgeous album), but she really nailed it with this song. An instant classic.

One of the most poignant songs especially for us that remember those telegrams.

Emmy Lou Harris and the bandmembers weave the fabric of what it is to be American into the music they make.
You've touched this world beautifully, Emmy Lou. Thank you.
