DESCRIPTION:
"Unwed Fathers," written by John Prine and Bobby Braddock, may be depressing to some of you, but it's something that needs to be said for women, and I'm glad I can say it. The young mother in the audience gives me a knowing smile when I sing "Unwed Fathers." - Johnny Cash, liner notes to "Rainbow," 1985.
This take was recorded at the Brookfield Zoo in Chicago, Illinois on July 5th, 1985.
