Nice one, Stevie - I think you are taking the right approach with these songs - meaning not being preachy but relating experiences in a positive and convincing way. This one is no exception. Good story - I didn't notice the length. Only listened once so I may be wrong on this but it seemed to have a number of different musical sections. Kinda like Thunder Road. In any case, it never got stale. Sounds like someone gave Harry Chapin a lyric and he called in Roger McGuinn for help  Scott Hey Scott, I'm glad it kept your interest all the way through. I know it's a long story song but I can't think of any way to shorten it without compromising on the message as a whole. If I was to cut one part it affects another and so on. Thanks for the listen and comments. I appreciate it. Stevie
I'm the only person here who is not unique.
