As PeterF noted, sad lyrics framed with happy, jangling banjo. Nice contrast.

Because of the use of pronouns, it took me a minute figure out that each verse introduced a different character. Not that I'm suggesting a rewrite it needed - just that I'm a bit slow-witted as a listener if it's not spelled out for me.

I enjoyed the listen, which seems a bit odd to say about a downer of a song. wink
