Whew!!!!!!!!
Marley - I've been waiting for someone to grab that line all day. I thought it up last night as I thought about the song again and again. You are probably right, in that Gregg does not tend to target his songs, they are ususally about him. But from what I can see going back and forth, it seems like Gregg doesn't hate Dickey, he just feels bad for him because of real or perceived problems. That's where my idea came from - I'd love to find out the truth - for now I'll just keep it in my head as a possibility.
BTW - I love analyzing lyrics also, so if you get the vibe, post up a message and/or send me a PM - I'll do the same.
PS - I love Old Before My Time, and even though Gregg is about 20+ years older than me, with all the partying I've done, and now being a father, it rings true to me too.
