Where can a sick man go?
When he can't choke down the medicine, the old doc knows
A specialist came to town but he stays at home
Sayin', "No one knows, so I don't", honey, when in Rome

    @wack1985 Reading books won't keep you warm, that was the point.

    @wack1985 - Grow the fuck up, I'm more of a book nerd than anyone I know and I love that line. Good poetry is good poetry. This is an amazingly powerful song.

    hey those books you gave us look good there on the shelves at home and they'll burn warm in the fireplace < -- worst line ever! I'm kind of a book nerd and that line made me die a little inside. I still love Nickel Creek though

    When the instruments have free reign at around 3:16, that's where I think the song soars. Good stuff.

    NC carries on the bluegrass history like Union Station and Allison.
