This is one of MacColl's last songs and his farewell to the world. In it, a dying hiker says goodbye to all he holds dear: the hills, his wife and his children (Black And White - The Definitive Collection, trk#20, 1993, Green Linnet Records, Nashville, Tennessee); and (Black And White - The Definitive Collection, trk#18, 2000, Cooking Vinyl Records, London, UK).
