![]() Eat A Peach (1972) [ larger cover art ] |
Walk along the river, sweet lullaby, it just keeps on flowing,
It don't worry 'bout where it's going, no, no.
Don't fly, mister blue bird, I'm just walking down the road,
Early morning sunshine tell me all I need to know
You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day.
Lord, you know it makes me high when you turn your love my way,
Turn your love my way, yeah.
Good old Sunday morning, bells are ringing everywhere.
Goin' to Carolina, it won't be long and I'll be there
You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day.
Lord, you know it makes me high when you turn your love my way,
Turn your love my way, yeah.
It don't worry 'bout where it's going, no, no.
Don't fly, mister blue bird, I'm just walking down the road,
Early morning sunshine tell me all I need to know
You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day.
Lord, you know it makes me high when you turn your love my way,
Turn your love my way, yeah.
Good old Sunday morning, bells are ringing everywhere.
Goin' to Carolina, it won't be long and I'll be there
You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day.
Lord, you know it makes me high when you turn your love my way,
Turn your love my way, yeah.
| :+:_DL (RVA) | Posted: Mar 28, 2013 - 11:09 Wow,.... I didn't think I could dislike that Fleet Foxes' song anymore than I did, but now in contrast to the Allman Brothers it really puts it into perspective how bad modern rock has gotten. Thanks Bill for this valuable lesson |
| Lazarus (Bethany) | Posted: Mar 28, 2013 - 11:06 Everybody in my church loves this song soooo much!!!! |
| unclehud (now 50 feet above the planet in Boston) | Posted: Jan 24, 2013 - 16:55 Oh baby, baby! "You're my blue sky, you're my sunny day." Could there be a sweeter love line? |
| Phlegmaticman (270 miles south of Paradise, CA) | Posted: Oct 22, 2012 - 15:57 Nice follow-up to Fleet Foxes. |
| Queue (ROKville, MD) | Posted: Oct 22, 2012 - 15:56 Harmony's great stuff, when you put it into the lead guitars, rhythm guitars, AND the vocals, then you've achieved awesome. ![]() |

| anotherlistener (outside Bawlmer) | Posted: Jul 20, 2012 - 05:44 A 10 just doesn't do this song justice. As I said before; Joy, as expressed on guitar. Beautiful!! |

That's one of the reasons they were so good in concert back in the day. Take any ABB song and it ends up 5 to 10 minutes longer live ! |
| KurtfromLaQuinta (Deep in the heart of South California) | Posted: Mar 15, 2012 - 12:57 Eat a peach and listen to this song... some of my favorite things. |

| Toke (Bournemouth UK) | Posted: Sep 07, 2011 - 12:51 This has got to go down along side Jessica as one of the greatest tracks that ABB has ever made, can never make up my mind what version of this track I prefer this one all the heavier one but at the end of the day ALL tracks that ABB are Amazing, but there again I might be a bit Biased .. Still have 'Brothers and Sisters on Vinyl since buying on release. |

| anotherlistener (outside Bawlmer) | Posted: Jul 11, 2011 - 12:46 Thanks for finally playing this one, Bill. But, of course I missed it. The overall rating hasn't dropped much, now that it's been played. Hope this one will stay in the rotation. |

| d-don (Oregon) | Posted: May 04, 2011 - 13:25 So many beautiful memories associated with this song, and a beautiful Oregon blue sky at the moment. Perfect. |
| (former member) (hotel in Las Vegas) | Posted: Apr 02, 2011 - 21:40 This song is soooo good for the ears... |
| GawgaBoy (State of Confusion) | Posted: Apr 02, 2011 - 21:39 As a Georgia boy, it doesn't get any better than the day we had in Georgia today and listening to the brothers tonight. Thanks Bill and Rebecca.... for the music that is, not sure you had much to do with the weather. |
| sirdroseph (Yes) | Posted: Mar 02, 2011 - 10:35 Not a big Allman fan, but I seem to prefer the songs Dickie sings on, great song! ![]() |
| amoreena (west whatnot) | Posted: Mar 02, 2011 - 10:31 The theme song for skipping 6th period, hopping in Cat's beetle and heading to the park for a fat one. Play on, Duane. Amen. |
| FrankMc | Posted: Mar 02, 2011 - 10:30 What a great song to celebrate the coming of Spring (at least down here in GA.) After a cold, nasty winter (at least by our standards—I took a bike ride in snow flurries the day after Christmas), today is transcendentally sweet. Walk it around, Dickie. Mighty fine. |

| anotherlistener | Posted: Aug 26, 2009 - 10:05 Another year has gone by without a play. Why Bill, why? |
| anotherlistener | Posted: Aug 11, 2008 - 13:15 Please please play it. Duane/Dickey solo defines joy expressed on guitar. |
| Ngoziman (Ngoziland) | Posted: Jun 02, 2006 - 15:39 If there was a musical definition of perfection it would be Duane's solo. And yeah, Bill play it! |
| snarf (Silver Spring, MD) | Posted: Jan 10, 2004 - 01:18 Can we get a play here? Anyone. Anyone? |
