    Here's a trivia question for bluegrass fans. On the Country Gentlemen's
1977 gospel album "Calling My Children Home" there's a song called
"I've Never Been There". The chorus sounds to me like it says:

    Talk about your pain
        Talk about your pain
    Talk about your troubles
        We live in a motel...

    Now they (the Country Gentlemen) probably do (live in motels), but
I can't see them squeezing the fact into a gospel song. Any ideas?
