This is my all time favorite Patty song, I'm so thankful we have radio stations in Austin that frequently play her music! She's angelic!

....and how "the long ride home" is like my life, but by God's grace, even though he's hurt me, he will let me go to heaven someday, as in "home". It helped me get through a hard time in my life, I don't know that I think about it that way so much anymore though.

that's funny, I always thought of this from a woman's perspective. I guess it could be either. Why do you think it's a man's...because of the line, "your daddy gave a piece of land" as in it's an old fashioned song and she means a dowry by that. That's the only thing I can think of, of a reason why you think it. Doesn't really matter either way, probably means something different to different people. to me it's like singing to God of how he's hurt me in life.

your right, it doesnt matter harrietts2, but what about the part right before that goes, "the day i took your tiny hand,...", i always thought that it suggested a husband speaking about his wife. whatever, the song, like so many of her others, has such a "knowing" quality to it, that suggest a long life lived or good listening skills, or probably both. my 2 cents. anyways, great post.

I saw her the night before this show in Tucson. She is amazing live although I was bummed that EVERY song she played was from her new CD. She did Sweet Lorraine for the encore.

I decided that I want this song played at my funeral --- I was gonna use Mountain Railway but --- ah hell! --- I'll use 'em both.
