Sandy Paton Best Homesick Songs (110* d) RE: Best Homesick Songs 21 May 01


"I'm Goin' Back to North Carolina" sung by Frank Proffitt.
"Where the Silvery Colorado Winds It's Way" sung by my mother.
"The Housatonic Valley" from Songs of the Rivers of America by Carl Carmer (who wrote the book, not the song). That's the river that forms the eastern boundary of my home town in Connecticut.
"I'm Goin' Home to Georgia" by Lisa Null.
I sing "Abilene," too. But I always try to think of Kansas, not Texas, when I do. Is that heresy?

I'm also a child of government gypsies, Matt. When my father retired after thirty years in the Coast and Geodetic Survey, my poor mother counted and realized they had lived in forty-three different houses during his career. They never gathered books or records, like settled folks.

Sandy
