Hard Times in the Mill The Thinking Man, John Henry Erie Canal Shovelin' Iron Ore: "Something happened the other day that never happened before-- A man tried to get me to shovel Iron Ore. I said, 'Old man, now, what do you pay?' He said, "Two bits a ton." I said,'Old man, go diddle yourself, I'd rather bum!'" (Music in Sandburg's 'American Songbag') Paul Bunyan's Manistee Squid Jiggin' Ground Lukey's Boat Christmas Day in the Workhouse This is just off the top of my head--I have several thousand folk songs of all kinds committed to memory.
