Subject: RE: origins: Piney Wood Hills (Buffy Sainte-Marie)
cetmst, does the songbook say "I was raised on a song there"? I always sang, "I was raised, I was born there; I've done right, I've done wrong there...". valleys in the plural, "now I'll return to my piney woods home" and "love as I do, my piney wood hills." The latter variations are tiny and inconsequential, but I mention because of Joe's strikethrough editing. For the database, I suppose it would be best to give the lyrics as Buffy St Marie copyrighted them.
