Dawes – That Western Skyline Lyrics 12 years ago
Lou's Pub and Package makes perfect sense to me as the person he's talking to in this song. Sounds like he chased his love to a foreign town without her asking him to, found a local haunt that he felt comfortable with while he was there, and, now that he realizes it's over, he's telling his story to the only place/people he feels he can talk to.

I'll agree that the Birmingham soil reference is weird, but at the same time the damp, red soil in Birmingham can seem "rich" to those who've never tried to grow on it.
