It starts with the sounds of crickets, and i think it may have been about a train or a car ride home from a fair, i think either it was beverly craven, or from an all woman tape neither i have anymore does anyone remember this song?

If you know some of the lyrics, google them, sometimes you can pick up the song that way.
