Remix

So "Long black veil" has this lyric, "The slayer who ran looked a lot like me."

PeggyO has this great roots-of-bluegrass show on KFJC that I audio hijack every week and listen to en route to-from Harvard. Night before last I was struck by this lyric from the song, "Old Slewfoot," about a bear:
He was big around the middle and broad across the rump,
Running 90 miles an hour, doing 30 feet a jump.
He's never been cornered and he's never been treed
and some folks said he looked a lot like me.

I can't get it out of my haid.
