	Story Behind the Song I had been on the road for 30 months trying to get signed, then, with Dog Ear Records, supporting the LP. It was Christmas. I was in Chicago looking out a hotel window. I wrote the beginning of this and all of ChOse Wrong. I went to Champaign to play the Red Herring. I met Josh Bragg at a party at UofI and he added an inside out turn of the chords and by dawn, we had finished this tune. I went back Chi to finish the LP. We put both songs on the album and it was done. Recording was simple back then, I was a single. I laid down my tracks, got on a Grey Hound, and went on the road. Studio cats hired by the record label did all the work. Lyrics 1. Just stopped by to tell you I was thinkin your name stopped by to ask you baby mind if I hang around +++++++++BR+++++++++++++ on the tail of a wester just blew into town stopped by to ask you babe do you still feel the same ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2. I's kinda wondrin just how it might feel to feel those same old streets beneath my feet ===========ch======== I come back home Lord part boy and part man come lookin for shelter form my poor soul with my hat in my hand ========================= 3. I's kinda reachin seekin to find a place to rest my weary bones thru the gray mists of time ============ch============== Sit me down by the fire, ma I got some stories to tell put my walkin shoes on a back closet shelf ==============================
