Pure entertainment 'Buggy Boy'! Had to play it again and concentrate on the lyrics after wondering how the hell you managed to sync (pretty much) the action to the tune, the first view! B-)

Nicely done Bug!

Well!  I looked at the title and presumed, "Oh my goodness, someone will be offended!"   Then I heard it, liked it, liked the sound  and lyrics, learned it's an old song.   Like it.   Man, there should be no reason why a white can not do this song.   GOOD one, Bug.

Great song bug and love the acoustic style.

These are old blues words from and old blues book,tells the story of the time.No offence meant, but its good to spark a discussion.Having read a book about hoboeing and sharecropping,you get the understanding of where the blues comes from and why, and how bad it really was for some people in the 1930's.(especially some)

If you could play a guitar you had the only way out!!!!

Words of the blues still carry the feelings and emotions to this day, and clearly still evoke thoughts and discussion.

No font big enough James, but your right lets not booger up Bugs post. The name ask for some discussion but not at each other. The Blues may have very well brought the North And South together after the Civil War.                    Or its still trying. I can tell a joke from a bigget I don't see it.
