Thread Name: BS: Not 'Chavs' but Poor
Subject: RE: BS: Not 'Chavs' but Poor
Thanks for the remarks on Buddy's song. He writes great songs - about a dozen CDs and three anthologies worth - and I have many favorites. 'Cowboy in a Wheelchair', a crippled boy's fantasy about a swift, coal-black stallion, is one of them.

We are grateful he is in this town; we tell him that when he dies he is going to be famous. :) I hesitate to post 'Father's Grave' in a Lyrics Added thread because it is not a song that anyone here knows. Or has asked about!

'Trailer Trash' evidently is used a good deal like 'chav.' If so, however, chav is not a term I would like to see come into use here.
