James Taylor wrote this song shortly after being signed to a record deal to Apple Records by the Beatles. He was sitting in an office in London, surrounded by all these new people and exciting things yet he was still feeling homesick. The Beatles are reference in this song as a "holy host". In fact on the original track Paul McCartney played bass and George Harrison sang backup vocals. The song also references his drug abuse problems and how he wishes he could just go back to carolina and the way thing were when he was a kid.
