“Mosey on Home”

In this cowboy-style piece, her boyfriend walks the young woman home along a country path under a gorgeous, starry night sky. The couple argue civilly along the way, about both his cowardly denial to his parents of her Christian faith, and about the ‘other woman’ his parents favorably mentioned.

Thankfully, this conversation ends well, and even warmly, as they part, following his reassurance of his love delivered via a spontaneous and deeply romantic solo ballad at her doorway.
