This song came out after the civil war when the Midwest was filling up with farmers turning it into the breadbasket of the world. When the railroads raised their freight and storage rates and the price of corn and wheat tumbled the railroads and the banks began to forecdlose on the newly developed farmlands. This gave birth to the Farmer Alliance and the Greenback-Labor Party. The Great West , a paper distributed at the first Populist convention said "Men of the West, the party of the common people has come ande it's a giant at birth. It's sledge hammer swings with the muscle and the toil of an army , it's songs will come out of the oppressed." Songs were sang at the convention undeer placards that reade " WE DO NOT ASK FOR SYMPATHY OR PITY. WE ASK FOR JUSTICE " This song is one of the songs from the Populist conventions. And the farmer is still the man who feeds us all. I got two guitars going. Flat picking on the 12 string and finger picking a 6 stringer

Since Tom had a couple guitar breaks I thought I'd try to add a couple of different things. It's certainly nothing to brag about on my part, but it was fun.
