GUEST,van lingle Your Favorite Folk songs - And Why? (33) RE: Your Favorite Folk songs - And Why? 29 Apr 06

Buffalo Skinners because it evokes such vivid, grisly images.

Old Blue because it reminds me of a great little mutt I use to have who would lick my face whenever I sang it to him.

House Carpenter- another great story of lust, passion, betrayal and damnation.

Wagoner's Lad- An early feminist song.

Lots of others. I like a lot of these old songs because, I imagine, the lyrics have been so beautifully refined over centuries and we're left with the gift of great stories told with such eloquence. vl
