He lives in Appalachia where life is hard
Some call him hillbilly poet, or simply a bard
because even while he’s slaving away
every day to put food on his family’s plates
He tells everybody stories,
and everybody says they’re first rate…
As the sweat of his brow
is pouring off his face,
He just takes the life he’s been given
with grace
