spoons - lots of good stuff in this thread. I hope somebody turns it into a playlist. In my book; however, you nailed it with Stan Rogers:
- And you, to whom adversity has dealt the final blow
With smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go
Turn to, and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain
And like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again.

Thanks, lil. I come by my love of Stan Rogers pretty honestly - My dad always had a few tapes in his truck.
- Rise again, rise again
though your heart may be broken
and life about to end
no matter what you've lost
be it a home, a love, a friend
like the Mary Ellen Carter, Rise again.
