I think our fathers relationship (often a fractured relationship as in this song) with his family is one of the most real things in life and there are very few songs that explore that. Rodrigeous was doing that in his early 20s.

Rosmary is carrying on in a way he disapproves of, Ruth has already disappeared, he has not lived his dreams of youth and his wife mocks him.
Only on his death bed does his differences with his son "disappear" It is an powerfull song of a man, the singers father, who was totally ineffectual.
I have a ticket to see him in October. I dont know how I will react.
@ChrisWilmott where in this song does it talk about anyones "deathbed"? you've really took this one to a level that might be more befitting to your own personal experience, this song is about himself and for the few who might can relate... his life was such a peculiar one as a drifter/vagabond and a frequent buyer of prostitutes, he really just is writing about how he really has died inside and has no more joy and bitterly recalls the last meeting with his father.... love yourself bro, do not deny your ambitions, SEEK YE FIRST the Kingdom of God...

A song about the singers father. I dont know if it is Rodriguezs father. Probably a caricature.
