From 1962:
I was just a sprout back then
Bob Zimmerman
What Jesse Colin Young said about this song recently on a different you tube version: I started writing this song while performing in San Francisco during the Summer of Love. There was a tune on the FM radio there that caught my ear by the band Kaleidoscope, and it helped me dig down into my Celtic roots. I wrote the lyrics at the kitchen table one night in my apartment when we returned home to Manhattan. I wrote it for all my brothers and sisters serving in Vietnam...to support and honor them. I hope we can pause today to honor and thank all those who are serving right now and all who have served in the past. God bless them and bring'em home safe.
