Gillian Welch – Hard Times Lyrics 11 years ago
A friend just turned me on to Gillian Welch songs and I''m hooked. Love this song. I think you could read it both ways, the loss of family farms ,and it sounds like the way things were during the dustbowl. People would camp out on the outskirts of town ( camp towns) and work for local farmers, they were poor migrants just trying to stay alive. The lyrics: So come on you ragtime kings, and come on, you dogs, and sing... is how it was. Ok, that's my 2 cents lol Just joined : )
