This was the song that was less immediately familiar to me when I first heard Reckoning, though it's tune and glorious chorus harmonies were not difficult to love. But I wasn't versed in the sentimental C&W this was clearly sourced in and wouldn't be for a while. Apparently written for the most part by Mike Mills about a girl he knew going away to live and work in Rockville, Maryland. There's an element of melancholy to the refrain but really it's just fun isn't it? Pure and simple.
