Description
Emmylou was written by Swedish folk duo First Aid Kit in tribute to the names of Emmylou Harris, June Carter, Johnny Cash, and Gram Parsons, all prominent American country stars. Upon being asked about the song First Aid Kit replied that it is about singing with someone you love, even when you might not be able to stay with that person.
Meta Lyrics
I’ll be your Emmylou and I’ll be your June
If you’ll be my Gram and my Johnny too
No, I’m not asking much of you
Just sing, little darling, sing with me
