I'm a hillbilly, so... umm... yeah... if course.
This song makes me cry. Which is weird, and scares the crap out of Grace, 'cause it ain't natural.
I spent 30 years out in the rest of the world, thrashing around and getting in trouble mostly, because you can take the boy out of the mountains, but you can't take the mountains out of the boy, and that creates some amount of friction out in the flatlands, and beyond.
30 years, listening to these hills beg me to come home, and ignoring them. I had shit to do, and that mostly involved getting in more trouble.
But you can't ignore it forever.These mountains won't let up, and they'll eventually wear you down.
And you'll come home.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
