In Their Words: "I wrote this song a while back for an old man I saw walking around the streets of Bozeman, Montana. I never met him. We only crossed paths for one moment, but he had a story in the way he walked that stuck with me. I got to wondering about that old man and how he carried his guitar case. He had the enlightened, wild look of a hobo king like Iowa Blackie or Utah Phillips. I wrote a song for him and, in return, he helped me realize that the only way a person can really get the best out of living is being alright with the dying part." — Jack Klatt
