This song hits close to home for me. I think "state of the big sky", is Montana, the Big Sky State. Also I don't think the lyrics are "state of the loud feet". They are 'state of the Blackfeet." Northwest Montana is Blackfeet Indian country. I read somewhere that as a child, Isaac spent sometime living on a commune in Sunburst, MT, which is just east of the Blackfeet Rez. I think it's about his youth and the time he spent there.
