Daniel Grayling Fogelberg (August 13, 1951 – December 16, 2007)

Ahh, so many memories tied up in listening to Fogelberg's music while in high school in the '70s. Sad to see his passing.


Hickory Grove

Hickory Grove, wait for me
I'm just as poor as a man can be.
Hickory Grove, wait for me
I'm just as blind as the other men that see.

Hickory Grove, make the sun
Rise slower I don't have much time.
Hickory Grove, watch me run
Down through the years of my prime.

Lady Luck, play your hand
I've got a life for you to play with
Hickory Grove, you will stand...
I've got a dream that I can stay with.

I've played along with the song "the last nail" since my teenage years. Its one of my very favorites but there are many others that still bring good memories to the forefront for me as well.

I'm also sad to hear he passed.
