Thread Name: Lyr Req: Drunken Ira? / Ballad of Ira Hayes
Subject: RE: Drunken Ira
Thanks Glenda!. That is the song I was looking for. It is the "Come gather around me" line that made me think of Woody Guthrie, I guess.
The song was sung during the 60's folk era, Jacob. I heard it more than once; but it still impresses me.
