  4. BOBBY BARE
    Tender Years
    1965 U.S. pressing

    Spending the night with one of the all time #country GOATS.

    I was in the middle of re-arranging the country wing of my library, and realized it’s been a while since I’ve listened to Bobby.
    So I pulled out two of my favorites, and I’m about to do them both back to back, starting with this one.

    Only 8 songs are collected here, but they’re ALL slayers, including one of my favorite Bobby Bare tunes “Vampira”.

    I'm 500 miles away from home
    Teardrops fell on mama's note
    when I read the things she wrote
    She said
    We miss you son
    We love you
    Come on home
    Well, I didn't have to pack
    I had it all right on my back
    Now I'm 500 miles away from home
    Away from home, away from home
    Cold and tired and all alone
    Yes, I'm 500 miles
    Away from home.
