Dust Bowl (Liner Notes)

This bunch of songs ain't about me, and I ain't a going to write about me, 'cause every time I start to do that, I find that I ran out of material.

They are 'Oakies' songs, 'Dust Bowl' songs, 'Migratious' songs, about my folks and my relatives, about a jillion of 'em, that got hit by the drouth, the dust, the wind, the banker, and the landlord, and the police, all at the same time... and it was these things all added up that caused us to pack our wife and kids, into our little rattletrap jallopies, and light out down the Highway -- in every direction, mostly west to California...
