One of Curtis’ favorites, this song was co-written by his friend, Jake Lambert (with Josh Graves), and recorded by Flatt & Scruggs. Curtis first heard this song back when he worked with Lester Flat, filling in for Earl Scruggs. The sparse arrangement here pays homage to Flatt and Scruggs but is decidedly McPeake & May, who worked it up specifically for this recording. Especially meaningful to Curtis, it was a shoe-in for the title track of this collection of well-loved songs.
