Me and my best friend Lillian And her blue tick hound dog Gideon Sittin' on the front porch coolin' in the shade Singin' every song the radio played Waitin' for the Alabama sun to go down Two red dirt girls in a red dirt town Me and Lillian Just across the line And a little southeast of Meridian She loved her brother I remember back when He was fixin' up a '49 Indian He told her, ? Little sister, gonna ride the wind Up around the moon and back again" He never got farther than Vietnam I was standin' there with her When the telegram come for Lillian Now he's lyin' somewhere About a million miles from Meridian She said, ? There's not much hope for a red dirt girl Somewhere out there is a great big world That's where I'm bound" "And the stars might fall on Alabama But one of these days I'm gonna swing My hammer down" Away from this red dirt town I'm gonna make a joyful sound She grew up tall and she grew up thin Buried that old dog Gideon By a crepe myrtle bush in the back of the yard Her daddy turned mean and her mama leaned hard Got in trouble with a boy from town Figured that she might as well settle down So she dug right in Across a red dirt line Just a little south east of Meridian Yes, she tried hard to love him But it never did take Just another way for the heart to break So she learned to bend One thing they don't tell you about the blues When you got 'em You keep on fallin' 'cause there ain't no bottom There ain't no end at least not for Lillian Nobody knows when she started her skid She was only 27 and she had five kids Could-a been the whiskey, could-a been the pills Could-a been the dream she was tryin' to kill But there won't be a mention in the News of the World About the life and the death of a red dirt girl Named Lillian Who never got any farther Across the line than Meridian Now the stars still fall on Alabama Tonight she finally laid That hammer down without a sound In the red dirt ground

From Emmylou Harris herself - the background to this song on her website: "I am very, very inspired by the sound of words, and the names of places are so melodic and beautiful," she said. "I was passing through Meridian on my way down to record in New Orleans and that's what started it." "But what really took it over the edge for me was on a night off in New Orleans we went to see Boys Don't Cry," Emmylou continued. "It unnerved me, not only because of the violence and homophobia, but also because of the underlying theme of how trapped those young people were. We all come into this world with so much potential and so many dreams. Who knows why some people escape and other people don't? The key idea is in the lyric, 'There won't be any mentions on The News of the World.'" Emmylou told the story of the song to American Songwriter magazine: "I had driven to New Orleans with my dog Bonaparte and I passed the sign for Meridian, and I started making rhymes in my head. So I had this rhyme scheme but I didn't know what it was about. You get crushes on words and then the rhymes come. Anyways, right after I got there, I went to see the movie Boys Don't Cry. This story about the lost lives of these young people with nowhere to go and it turns into such negative things …" "I've had this incredibly blessed life, but I created this character who'd had all of these hopes … and I just made this story up inspired by my remembrances of the south. I also imposed the lives of these kids from Boys Don't Cry. Who knows where these songs come from? It's such a mystery to me. Sometimes, I think, 'God, I really wrote that?'" A stunning, sad song, about everyday life in America.

THAT would be ultimate magic. Cause it can be felt here...on this video. And on Shangri La...and others. The reaction of the audience....All of it. So, so beautiul.

There were about 30 people in that little club, and, of course, all of us guys had a crush on her. My buddy lived near her parents out in Howard County. Still go see her when she is on tour. She's gone a long ways from that little club, as have all of us.

A few years later I heard her sing on an album with Gram Parsons and I said...dammit...its her. I went out and bought the album "Grevious Angel".

The honest intimacy of Emmylou's songs is so expressive of the human condition, the human emotion, and the human heart. She saw this in many of Gram's songs and became closer to her audience even as the "country radio moguls" dismissed her. She is so genuine in her writing that you feel like a close friend whom she just shared with a most personal secret or feeling. In this day of division...isn't it nice to find someone you can share this life with? (And Emmylou Harris is always there for you...singing her song "just for you.")

Mr Knopfler is great and all but I'm here for Emmylou, it's amazing how she never seems to age except for the better ❤😊

How many "red dirt girls" tragically before, now, and still to come?!
