amy ray quote from spring 1992: general foods international coffees radio program:

"i was walking around up in north georgia, in the mountains, and i came upon this settlement from the 1830's and there were all these cedar trees planted around these old chimneys. and a friend of mines' father said that back in those days a, a husband would a, plant a tree for every wife he'd had. and so um i wrote a song about it. 'cause there were bunch of trees up there."
