This song was written by Danny and performed by Johnson Machine Gun shortly after I left the group. I've always been impressed with his song writing style and this one really breathes. I don't think I've ever captured it, but here's another try.
This is the "bluegrass" version. It was recorded with snare/brushes, washboard, double bass, acoustic, mandolin, banjo, and dobros. Hey, why not?

Dan... your lyricism and fearlessness are terrifying, my brother. Verse two terrifies me.
BTW - In the original, Brent got the better of you on the quarter note groove; his feel is awesome. And Dave Gibson is amazing... So is the other Gibson.
