Where can a sick man go? When he can’t choke down the medicine The old Doc knows. A specialist came to town, but he stays at home Saying no one knows, so I don’t, Honey, when in Rome. Where can a teacher go? Wherever she thinks people need the things she knows. Hey, those books you gave us look good on the shelves at home And they’ll burn warm in the fireplace, Teacher, when in Rome. Grab a blanket, sister, we’ll make smoke signals. Bring in some new blood It feels like we’re alone. Grab a blanket, brother, so we don’t catch cold from one another I wonder if we’re stuck in Rome. Where can a dead man go? A question with an answer only dead men know. But I’m gonna bet they never really feel at home, If they spent a lifetime learning how to live in Rome.
One of the best instrumental guitar pieces ever. Just incredible i will not send anybody a video or mp3 of this. Go to www.johnbutlertrio.com and buy the album. you must agree and artist of such talen deserves support!
Hi, i have had a lot of comments about this getting out of sync. Unfortunately this is nothing to do with me(works fine on my comp, and i have re-uploaded it numerous times), so i cant fix it
. It may be something to do with the codec i used, but either way, it is a youtube prob. Sorry guys, and glad to have gotten so much positive feedback about it ![]()



nineteen people caught cold from one another.

A few years ago my music teacher pulled out a Nickel Creek song for the class to hear and I pretended to hate it at first without listening to it. Now I don’t know how to survive a day without this music. When In Rome is my favourite. <3
~These guys seriously need to get their voice boxes surgically attached….their voices belong together.~
We’re singing this in our band. You so rock! Adrian and Julian (twins who sang to you backstage…..)
i play guitar and this song only makes me want to play mandolin.
I’m taking a guitar class in college and my professor told me that I would like Nickel Creek. He was right.
With pride, I will be the 1,337th like.

I really enjoyed listening to this. Just moments before, I was enjoying listening to Iron Maiden’s The Number Of The Beast. Having a varied taste in music is a good thing.
