I learned this song from a Burl Ives record when I was a child. It's always been very deep and sad to me. STREETS OF LAREDO As I walked out in the streets of Laredo As I walked out in Laredo one day I spied a poor cowboy all wrapped in…

Another of those old songs that has dozens of verses. I picked fro many versions. Joking about sad things and sad times. Music seems to make it all bearable.

This is another song Dad asked me to learn for years. Like, RoseWood Casket, It makes no literal sense to me.

I have always really liked this song. It's a cool story and delightful music. Has that funny/sad combination. Resignation of the poor and downtrodden.

My dad asked me to record this song long before someone put it on line so I could learn it. I was so surprised: the story was so unlike what I was expecting. In fact the song doesn't make any sense to me even now.

Of course, this is an old song. My mom would always say, "Jimmy, play The Wild Wood Flower, like Dick Melton used to."

No Banjos were harmed in this song.......i would really love to be able to play one but this is all done on a keyboard ...hope you enjoy attempt at ...well i'm not sure what to call it...but i sure enjoyed doing it.... I DON’T WANT TO GO (Lyrics…

That's Peggy singing this song which was ironic because when all the stuff was going on around Brook's life and drowning she had been off in college hearing about it all from a distance...never thinking that someday she would be in the middle…
