    Sometimes I despair about the state of the music we hear these days compared to my youth (60s & 70s), then I come across a genius like this.
    Warms my heart!

    remember when our songs were just like prayers.
    like gospel hymns that you called in the air.
    come down come down sweet reverence,
    unto my simple house and ring…
    and ring.
    ring like silver, ring like gold
    ring out those ghosts on the ohio
    ring like clear day wedding bells
    were we the belly of the beast or the sword that fell…we’ll never tell.
    come to me clear and cold on some sea
    watch the world spinning waves..like some machine
    now i’ve been crazy couldn’t you tell
    i threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell
    now i’m covered up in straw, belly up on the table
    well and sang and drank, and passed in the stable.
    that tall grass grows high and brown,
    well i dragged you straight in the muddy ground
    and you sent me back to where i roam
    well i cursed and i cried, but now i know…now i know
    and i ran back to that hollow again
    the moon was just a sliver back then
    and i ached for my heart like some tin man
    when it came oh it beat and it boiled and it rang..it’s ringing
    ring like crazy, ring like hell
    turn me back into that wild haired gale
    ring like silver, ring like gold
    turn these diamonds straight back into coal.

    This song takes me home to a place I loved so long ago ,a boat trip around Brownsea island in Poole harbour Dorset.Days of memories happy times, warm summer says fishing off the quay with my late Grandmother. Miss these times so much, bad decision to move North many years ago to the wretched Midlands!

    t's life.
    "Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table
    And I drank and sang, and I passed in the stable"
    He's dead or dying wishing he could do it all over again.
    Billy Graham was asked if there was anything about life that surprised him. He said yes, how brief it was.
    The singer has learned some painful lessons "now I know"
    but he wants to do it all over again!
    Dear Lord, so do most of us.

      Pretty sure whatever it was was the banjo player, not Greg, 'cause Greg kind of gives him an eye at that moment. Guessing the banjo player didn't do something as rehearsed ;)
