John Prine tells the story behind the song, followed by a live performance of Bruised Orange (Chain of Sorrow.)
This clip is from the outstanding "JOHN PRINE LIVE ON SOUNDSTAGE 1980" DVD, released in March, 2007.
I highly recommend this DVD to all John Prine fans. Read more about the DVD at the John Prine Shrine:

I saw John many times, but none better than in 1989. He played a small club in Columbia, SC with just him and 1 guitar…unreal.

I got into JP when I met him at a gas station. When he strolled away I said "that was John...and my pal from the guitar shop said "Prine himself, he was at the studio recording this morning. "

I went to live with my dad around 15yrs old. I'd wake up in the middle of the night to John Prine blaring from an old turntable and peek around the corner to see my dad all alone cryin his eyes out with a big smile on his drunken face. 29 years later I know what was goin on. I miss you dad.

Man, that’s so funny. I used to to get forced to listen to John Prine by my dad when I was a little boy. And thought wow, this music is terrible. Now I’m 36 and can understand the lyrics and realize how great John Prine is. Thankfully, I can still have a beer w/ my dad and listen to John Prine. What a loss...RIP John.

Since our John passed, his fans great and us everyday folk have shared so many stories, memories, grief, and original tunes. It's been extra sad and extra tender. Always bittersweet which John's songs seemed to be.

My older brother came back from Viet Nam in 1970 and moved into my folk's lake cabin up north with a bunch of his friends and started his version of a hippie commune. He had a decent stereo he had bought at the base exchange when he mustered out of the Army and they'd play all those great albums from the late '60s to have a running sound track playing while they did all that hard work of being hippies. I got to spend the summer of '70 living in a tent out back of the cabin and spending my time as an 11 year old learning how to smoke cigs and a little pot and swating lots of the Minnesota State Bird. Among those albums playing was "John Prine". Paradise, Hello In There, Sam Stone, Donald and Lydia, all those great songs on the most perfect gem of an album. It was that album and that man and his songs that made me pick up a guitar and to start playing and singing his songs. Fifty years later I'm still singing and playing 'em. Friends have told me, "You know, you're not bad, you should go out and gig", and I'd say "Yeah, I'm sure I could make the Big Time as a John Prine interpretor!" I hope John is up there laughing and smoking a cig and drinking "a nice cold beer" ("an ice cold beer" as translated from the original Prineglish). RIP, John!

John was really something - even after he had been touring as a musician for nearly 50 years, he was grateful you were a fan! He never acted like he was a super-cool rockstar and you were just someone paying his due. I think he was just grateful he was no longer a mailman. He will be sorely missed.

I was introduced to John Prine through listening to an interview on Radio National Australia. The interviewee spoke about a singer songwriter called John Prine. This interview was in early April this year 2020. I got up in the morning to You Tube , John and everyday since then He has been in my life. My favourite so far Some Humans Ain’t Human. I wish I had have known Him many years ago. I am a 72 year old western Queenslander from Australia.

I discovered him in 1977, at the age of 15 ... his songs still make me laugh and cry and my friends and I have gathered around campfires for 35 years to sing along with him. He evokes fun, laughter, heartbreak, sorrow, financial ruin, a quick buck at a poker game.... hell, any one of his songs is "a day in the life". He is one of our American treasures.

Hard to believe this recording is 34 years old. Have seen JP and average of about every-other-year since the late 70's and somehow he just gets better. He sue looks different and the voice is pure gravel at this point after his multiple throat surgeries, but he is still great and just timeless. Hope he keeps playing till his 90's. Never tire of listening. One of the best songwriters in history and so many people still do not know who he is.

Every couple of months I find new 'favourite' songs written and sung by John...and some with Steve's incredible input, prior to 1985. My two 'songs of the moment' are Bruised Orange (Train of Sorrow) and Some People aren't Kind... How did John Prine continue from day one till his death, and been through what he had survived in life, keep writing the most beautiful songs and music that it was possible for anyone to keep coming up with. We were born 6 months apart, and I 'found' JP 6 months after he passed away. He'll live in my heart forever. Love love love, Aimless Love, Unwed Fathers et al, et al.... Dan Kearney New Zealand

I play J.P every time i'm in a Pub. I get a kick out of the peeps that walk over to see what song is playing. I had a gal the other walk up to me at the pool table saying thanks for playing the music her husband and her enjoy so much. John Prine has that effect on people. Genius!!

''I been brought down to zero, pulled out and put back there I sat on a park bench, I kissed the girl with the black hair'' I don't know how people can say John Prine wasn't the greatest american songwriter of all time.

Yes, thank you John! Your music makes life more bearable, love more tolerable, and this world more beautiful. Hey, it ain't such a long drop don't stammer don't stutter From the diamonds in the sidewalk to the dirt in the gutter And you carry those bruises To remind you wherever you go.

Close but not quite. He said John Prine was "so good we might have to break his thumbs." He also said that if God has a favorite songwriter it's John Prine.

I've been listening to John Prine since 1974 when I first found out about him. I've never heard him sing a bad song. This is my all time favorite of his, but the list of all time favorite songs of his is about 20 songs long. How can you pick one over the others? This man simply tells stories of life. Some people say he's a better song writer than Dylan. I don't know about that, but I do know that you don't have to think hard about what John writes about to understand them. He writes about us all. And sometimes he pulls off the scabs doing it.

This album came out at a key time in my youth, struggling with many things, not the least of which was trying to figure out girls. The line about "sitting on a park bench, kissing the girl with the black hair, while my head shouted down to my heart, hey you better look out below" - that really resonated with me at the time.

First time hearing this. Unbelievable. I must have went back on this video 10 times over and over to figure out that the kid lived, or so at least so I could feel relieved. Listening to a John Prine song has a tendency to have you on the edge of your seat, wondering what's going on... or what might have been.
