Many years ago I was listening to this song when I got a phone call telling me a very good friend of mine, who was a fireman , had been killed fighting a fire. Even after all these years I still cry when I hear this song.
Not only a sad song in it's own right but this was a favorite of my Dad's and he would take out his guitar and sing it to me when I was a kid. I can not listen to even the first ten seconds of this version without the tears forming.
