I Love My Country Very Dearly, And I Greatly Resent The Implication That Some Of The Places I Have Sung And Some Of The People That I Have Known, And Some Of My Opinions, Whether They Are Religious Or Philosophical, Or I Might Be A Vegetarian, Make Me Any Less Of An American.

I Fell In Love With It, Especially The Long-necked Banjos.
