I was born in Salisbury, Salisbury, I was born in Salisbury And no one knows me there. There’s no money in Spencer, Spencer There’s no money in Spencer Everyone thinks that’s fair. Granite Quarry is still there, still there. Granite Quarry is still there, And so’s my fam’ly, too. There’s strangers now in Charlotte, Charlotte, There’s strangers now in Charlotte And they don’t even care. Copyright © 2018 - Zane Safrit - All rights reserved.

Homestate Song

Friday night I listened to the Jefferson County Green Band cover Greg Brown's The Fairfield Song. Driving home today, I started rhyming in my head. Here's the result. It's not as good as Greg Brown, Greg Brown. It's not as Good as Greg Brown, but that's okay too.
