- Description
- "Much grass on the road, take it all. When we walk we get tired of too much grass on the road." It is not easy to walk on dry grass as it is to slippery and the feet slip backwards and make you tired. The old player reflects a portion of country commonplace truth in this repetative little song. Humorous song with one string lute, Karigo.
