This version is not the one on the album.
There are a lot of sad songs out there, but this one stands alone.
Godspeed, Mr. Prine.

He probably witnessed it. I know I did as a kid with some of the vets in my neighborhood.

Well, this or "Hello in There".



Yeah...but the "Come on Home" song, noting that was one of his last, and he probably knew he was dying...that one song is a real zinger for appreciating his greatness.

I was just thinking about this out of the blue as being the saddest song I know. 
A poignant and painful, truthful and well-observed song, the way only Prine can deliver it. 


I 2nd the 3 before comments for this song.


Still never played? Maybe now is the time...
A 10 if there ever was.
9.6 rating and never been played. Here's hoping Bill get's my request to give it a spin.
