Seen the pinstripe truth
But when they play us,
They just embarrass Babe Ruth

Got no money got no guitar
Well I felt good and I got in the car

It was Christmas time, folks was feelin’ fine, had no ideas of future power lines. Thoughts fixed on New Year’s, while in Allamakee.
There appeared in print a minor public hint: “Please respond in 30 days, by January five, or local opposition to the project ain’t alive.
Thank you. Merry Christmas.”

They laid him in his grave
