You know, a lot of the old folk songs,


regardless of their stories,

you should do them the original way,

and they're not meant to hurt or harm anybody,


but if you change the story,

then you don't have the truth of the matter.


It's just exactly like history.


You know, the truth is something that's hard to face,

even I. If I get in a tight squeeze, you know, all of us,

I've started a story of my life,


and I'm trying to tell the truth,

and everybody that reads any of it,

they think, you know, that in the end,


I've committed a thousand murders

because it takes a long time to come

around and face oneself.

Right now, did you know I saw the light?

Okay, now I want you to say yes and I want to, Haddie out there,

I want to hear you sing too,

Mr., both of you.

Okay, John, I wonder,

so ain't this, you start it off.
