As through this world I ramble,
I seen lots of funny men;
Some rob you with a six gun -
Some with a fountain pen.
W. Guthrie "Pretty Boy Floyd"
Cool article and quotes, Mol. Seems that bluegrass is one of the most popular old styles - a style of banjo I enjoy, but never learned.
Another more recent favorite:

He's livin' too close to town.
Tom Russell "Ballad of Edward Abbey"
