	Story Behind the Song This song was my first attempt at a Bluegrass tune. Eventually it went through several changes and became what it is here. I will probably do a reprise that brings it back to it's original intent but for now it remains as is. The lyrics are based partly on real life and partly fiction. It's basically a story about a boy growing into a man and coming to terms with his family life. Most of the lyrics came quickly but the changes took some time to arrange. Lyrics One file day when I was very small Daddy sat me on his knee and told me, some day your going to fall I was just a little baby boy playing in the green grass and laughing at the snow I was laughing at the snow Didn't know any better Didn't know any worse Wasn't yet a sinner and I'd never never seen a whore One day my mama said your daddy went away went on up to the promise land across the USA I was laughing, laughing at the snow Turned 18 and I went away as far as I could go From Tennesse to Vietnam, a long way to go Shot em dead and I shot em alive I shot em as they ran away I don't have a penny to give and I don't have a penny to take All I need is a bottle of wine and a cool mountain lake
