What can I say? This song is about me!!! I lived this and still do 50 years later! But, in order to reach new heights, I bought a 4-wheeler. As I got older, hiking became a thing of the past. But, I still got to get “far above the timberline.” May my grandson grow to love this song as much as I have and may he climb higher than me in his life! Love you, Michael Martin Murphy! Thank you for writing this one just for me! And, may my grandson listen to it for another 50 years! All my love, Kimberly G.
Semper fi brother! I was at LeJeune as well when this was rocking the charts. We’d swoop home on the weekends with this blasting and we were happier than a pig in poo!
@@mahdiammons1577 yes... I to would swoop home quite often since I lived in Charleston, West Virginia. I was stationed at Camp my 2nd time Sep75 to Oct 77. Semper Fi Leatherneck
@Mike Binns it's a beautiful State. My young brother lives in Charlotte, and he loves it there. I like eastern North Carolina... beaches. I spent a lot of time on Onslow Beach. Semper Fi
I had the pleasure and privilege of hearing and meeting Michael in a small theater in Garner, NC around 2017. What a thrill after first being exposed to him when he did “Wildfire” on the Midnight Special TV show way back in 1976. A consummate professional entertainer and a gregarious fellow to the fans after the show.
This song reminds me of so many good times, good people and great adventures. Such a perfect time in our lives. I have lived in the foothills of the mountains in Carolina all my life. Seems fitting that this song lingers in our lives like the smell of a campfire in your clothes.
Love this tune along with all the others on the album, great lyrics that make you dream of the woods and a warm campfire under the stars.theres no guess work regarding this mans music. Thank you MMM
I always listen to MMM. He reminds me of Irish Whiskey! The longer in the Barell the better!! Lol. He looks Mighty! I reckon his mum n dad would be very proud!!!!! Go Irish!!❤
I think this is my favorite rendition of my absolute all time favorite piece of music. It's not that famous it moves me perfectly. It just moves up and my spine like the hands of a lover. Beautiful is not a strong enough word.

I wish I could say it was about me.
. the 4 wheeler is sacrilege ... drag your body or have friends carry you ......
Great song. When this was a hit, I was stationed at Camp LeJeune, North Carolina. This song was played a lot. Semper Fi

My dad used to listen to this when I was younger. Reminds me of riding home in the evening in his pickup truck
LOVE this tune. Murphey's voice is remarkable given his age. Not what it was, but for 79 its impressive.
Nothing better then a cowboy band.He just gets better with time
"than" not "then"; good God
Michael, you sound like a million bucks. Terrific.
The most feel good song Ever written!

Wonderful sound of MMM voice never changes for over 50 years!!!
My favorite MMM song. We all have known a Carolina, had a Carolina or wanted a Carolina. For me she remains a dream.
Love this tune along with all the others on the album, great lyrics that make you dream of the woods and a warm campfire under the stars.theres no guess work regarding this mans music. Thank you MMM
When people speak of the great guitar players, many come to mind and no one is the best. But Michael is certainly one of the best
Best version I've ever heard is when Lou Reed sang along and harmonized...it was magical
This is so beautiful I began to weep.
I do the same with this song and "Wildfire."
Grew up playing this song with my dad, Mark (banjo player). So nice to have this video ☺️
You've articulately and beautifully said what many of us feel. Thank you. He is risen, he has risen indeed.
What a beautiful voice and still so handsome. I do love this man and his music 🥰
I always listen to MMM. He reminds me of Irish Whiskey! The longer in the Barell the better!! Lol. He looks Mighty! I reckon his mum n dad would be very proud!!!!! Go Irish!!❤
This lifts my heart every time!
This song just makes my soul happy, like I have no cares in the world!! 💕👍

perfectly. It just moves up and my spine like the hands of a lover. Beautiful is not a strong enough word.
Nothing could be finer than to be with Carolina in the pines!
Except maybe "Wildlfire."
Always like that song by him
Cool he went from Cowboy to Bluegrass Music 🎶
Aw! He still has his great voice and sweet smile ♥️🌹
My favorite MMM song!
