If it weren't for these lines:

If it ain't of no flower dew It'll sure make you blue

It'd be a really simple, but small, song. But since it is there, the song becomes something really special. Instead of it being just one man saying how he'd like people to approach him, it becomes a dialogue via reflection between a man and his god, and a comittment to finding peace from this point onward. Sometimes the line between the man, the god, and the reflection is blurred, which is a really cool effect. Nice!

If it ain't of optimism I will pay no attention

I like this line especially. It's good courageous advice for anyone who is struggling with themsleves, and how life goes.
