    Lyrics
    Well things were mighty tough down in the Pines in nineteen twenty nine - They said in the city for a bowl of soup the city folks were standin' in line.
    Then FDR sent us down some jackets
    and some hobnail army boots
    and when folks got to dancin on Saturday night my how the splinters flew!
