“It’s like this: we poor, but we raised to be poor. It’s all we know. Lord knows we need money, but I wouldn’t live anywhere else. I love the country, the peace and quiet, the hunting and fishing. I know airbody, and airbody know me. We all kin. We poor, but our spirit is strong. That’s why we sing so good. And some of these country ladies out here look so good it make you bite your finger.”
