Flying in a big airliner Chicken flying everywhere around the plane Could we ever feel much finer
Coming into Los Angeles Bringing in a couple of keys Don't touch my bags if you please Mister Customs man, man
There's a guy with a ticket to Mexico Could he ever look much stranger Walking in the hall with his things and all Smiling, said he was the Lone Ranger
Coming into Los Angeles, Bringing in a couple of keys Don't touch my bags if you please Mister Customs man, man
Hip woman walking on a moving floor Tripping on the escalator There's a man in the line, and she's blowing his mind Thinking that he's already made her
Coming into Los Angeles, Bringing in a couple of keys Don't touch my bags if you please Mister Customs man, man
Coming into Los Angeles, Bringing in a couple of keys Don't touch my bags if you please Mister Customs man, man
Coming into Los Angeles, Bringing in a couple of keys Don't touch my bags if you please Mister Customs man, man

of a bath.
And there's a guy out there who had his hamburger stand burn down last night. And well, for those of you who still think capitalism isn't THAT weird, you might help him out and buy a few hamburgers.

6. I saw Arlo live at Newport News Park in Virginia. It was this... |
|
...intimate outdoor setting. A memorable day! He is awesome. I get wistful sometimes, wishing folk music would make a comeback. It is a bastion of liberalism!

8. Traditional music made a little comback |
|
after O Brother Where Art Thou. But we've got this corporate radio industry that wants to take the politics out of it. We've even got Burger King bastardizing a song written by an IWW union organizer for their stupid commercial. Steve Earle can't even get on country radio anymore. Its sad.

10. couple of good folk stations |
|
here in Boston, we have WUMB (www.wumb.org) ... folk is very big in the Boston area ...
and maybe the best folkie station in the country: www.folkAlley.com
as Cheryl Wheeler once said: "there are literally hundreds of dollars to be made in folk music."
