Cover art for Porterville lyrics by Creedence Clearwater Revival

I agree with you tman, it's one of the best going home song. Whereever "home" is.

It makes me think of my father who moved about 500 Km south a couple of years ago. He comes and visits me a lot but i don't go down there anymore. His woman and I don't go along nicely... But often I feel that I'm getting blamed for his errors by people. So it has a kind of special meaning for me.
