"A Long Run Home"

In 1981, Cerone recorded "A Long Run Home," a song released as a 7" single on the Reel Dreams label. The song, written by Carl Henry and Bill Hudak and recorded in Newington, Connecticut, is sung from the point of view of a Newark baseball player visiting a New York Stadium during a snowstorm. The record sleeve notes that "Rick Cerone's royalties will be donated to the Italian Earthquake Victims Fund." The single failed to chart in the US.

Famous quotes containing the words long, run and/or home:

    Exiled from his friends,
    is kept too long distressed
    in an island, sea swept,
    in the sea midst,
    a forest island,
    haunt of a spirit.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    It’s no good comin’ to me. I can’t help you. Nobody can help you. I don’t want any help. I just want to ... I just want to sit down and rest. I can’t ... run ... anymore.
    Jo Eisinger, and Jules Dassin. Anna O’Leary (Maureen Delaney)

    You can’t appreciate home till you’ve left it, money till it’s spent, your wife till she’s joined a woman’s club, nor Old Glory till you see it hanging on a broomstick on the shanty of a consul in a foreign town.
    O. Henry [William Sydney Porter] (1862–1910)
