Buy Dirt

Hey, hey, hey! Coming to you with another lyrics entry. Come check it out on my blog. You might want to add this song to your playlist, who knows? Don't forget to subscribe and follow me on my socials xxx

You can’t buy happiness, but you can buy dirt… I really like this song for some reason that I cannot fathom. It is just one of those songs that provide the feeling of warmth, comfort, and coziness when you are listening to it. The tune can get stuck in your head and gosh, the metaphor and allusion in the lyrics!! If you have not listened to it yet, go to Youtube or any music streaming service…

I’ve decided I’m not the reason why I can’t write or having any good ideas because the problem is clearly my music

I've gotta hand it to NSLU's international marketing team, they managed to take a concept as cute and innocent as "The Princess is in danger! Wait — Luigi's gonna save her this time?! 😱" and turn it into one of the most genuinely unsettling pieces of media to come out of the franchise.

This doesn't read as "Luigi's filling in for Mario this time around!", this reads as "Luigi finally snaps and murders his brother in cold blood, forcing Peach to watch before turning the blade on her as well." It's beautiful.

Hi! Can I ask you about the history of the Wagoner's Lad? I'm a fan of Peter & Gordon their song Pretty Mary, but only today, while listening to some Peggy Seeger, I realised that it's a different pov adaptation of that ballad!

Suggested Songs

"Pretty Mary" Peter & Gordon, 1964

Like you said, "Pretty Mary" is a gender-bent version of the Traditional song "The Wagoner's Lad", which was first documented in 1907 by Cecil Sharp. Here's the fun part- if you are familiar with folk song collector Cecil Sharp and American folk songs, you might expect that it was first collected somewhere in the UK or perhaps Ireland if it was spicy. However, the song was first collected in Appalachia! Despite focusing on English folk songs, Cecil Sharp also collected and recorded folk songs in the Appalachia.

It was first published in "English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians" in 1917. and was first recorded in 1926 by Kelly Harrell as "My horses ain't Hungry".

Another Interesting part of this song is that many of its verses have ended up in the song "On Top of Old Smokey", another song collected by Cecil Sharp in Appalachia in 1916.

This makes it hard to tell the two songs apart, as they've become tangled up with each other. Both songs even contain the same Roud folk song number: 414. "On Top of Old Smokey" was first recorded in 1925 by George Reneau. Old Smokey probably refers to the Great Smoky Mountain range that exists between Tenessee and North Carolina.

This Song, throughout its history, has been adapted and recorded over and over again, here's just a few examples.

Pretty Nancy by Jean Ritchie 1970s (?) The Wagoner's Lad by the Kossoy Sisters 1956 My Horses Ain't Hungry by Mike Seeger 1977 On Top of Old Smokey by Gene Autry 1952 Fare You Well Polly by Pete Seeger, 1954 Rye Whiskey by Woody Guthrie 1940 Goodbye Old Paint by Colter Wall 2021

and there are many many many more.

Thanks for the recommendation! I hope this was helpful

I'm making a separate post bc I kind of sent myself down a rabbit hole. I wanna clarify that I am a Big Hozier Fan and that most country music is a different lyrical ballpark entirely bc of the nature of the genre. (If I had to describe it I'd say it's more literal and storytelling than the whole, like, in-the-woods poetry thing hozier's got going on.)

Anyway I tried to find some that have the same kind of poetry to them or at least aren't about dirt roads and, like, alcoholism. (this is very hard to do there are so many songs about drowning your sorrows in alcohol. I think maybe that's a bad thing but what do I know about songwriting)

Zach Bryan - Something in the Orange

Ryan Bingham - Wolves

Deana Carter - Strawberry Wine

Chris Stapleton - Tennessee Whiskey

Brooks and Dunn - Neon Moon

Uncle Lucius - Keep The Wolves Away

Juice Newton - Angel of the Morning

Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down

The Band Perry - All Your Life

Lee Ann Womack - I Hope You Dance

Josh Turner - Would You Go With Me

I also have a few that I think just have generally clever lyrics that you probably won't enjoy very much if you don't like country music:

Rodney Atkins - If You're Going Through Hell

Sugarland - It Happens

Jessica Andrews - Who I Am

Billy Currington - People are crazy

Blake Shelton - Honeybee

Tim McGraw - Just to See You Smile
