This is song is a favorite of mine. It is from the "O' Brother where out though
A collection of music that made a profound impact on my life. Special thanks to the Cox
for writing such a concise and beautiful song. And for the record I think the lead
of the Cox family has one of the best voices in music today. -Nick P
