A traditional-based song recorded in Dylan's 1970 sessions and released on the 1973 album "Dylan", with female backing singers.
The words
A cheerful man sings of his devotion to Sarah Jane and the happy, crowded home they share.
The singer is a contented family man who describes his life with Sarah Jane and declares his affection for her. It plays as a light, good-humoured folk song rather than a story of trouble or heartbreak. A bouncing rhythm and a chorus of backing voices give it a loose, sing-along feel. Like the rest of the 1973 album, it was put out by Columbia from outtakes, and it sounds like a relaxed studio warm-up.
