Only John Prine could come up with a line like:
You come home late and you copme home early.
You come home big when you're feeling small.
You come home straight and you come home curly.
Sometimes you don't come home at all.
The man is pure songwriting genius.
The thing that really gets me abo;ut this clip is how shy Nanci Griffith seems to be. You can see the hero worship for Prine written all over her face. It gives the whole thing a kind of gentle sweetness.
By the way, this was made several years before she recorded the song with him on her Other Voices, Other Rooms CD.
Tomorrow is the big day!
