I love duhaast's summary, which is as touching as the song itself. I also like Dave Alvin's (original) version. My favorite is the line "Whatever happened...I apologize." I have this in my car and have been playing it and singing on the way to work every day. Cathartic, and John Doe's voice is amazing. Check it out if you haven't!
