ROTFL!! "Ode to Billy Joe" is one of my favorite songs, and it evokes strong memories. Every time I hear it, I can smell creosote, and I'm walking down a back road in Gautier MS with my sister and our friends, by the old creosote plant. I don't even know if it's still there, but it will always be there in my memory.
Every time I drive in the Mississippi delta
and see the cotton fields I think about the
Ode to Billy Joe.
Kinda like people going to the beach and hearing
the “Jaws” theme I guess.
