Yeah.

I . .er ..  I never heard of Kentucky economy . .

For folks like us

You ain’t us.

Then meaning for folks like you living in these states

I’m sure in all states; for folks like us.

Im sorry  what do you meanwhat are you talking about

Poor folks.

Poor folks

Like I said, you ain’t us.

Im not wealthy

You ain’t wealthy, but you got that look about you that you’d disapprove of our . . economy.

Your Kentucky economy I am drawn to its rhymeits poetics

That’s another thing separating us, poetics; we ain’t got time for poetics, poetry, poems, sissy shit.

I mean what’s been meant for a long time; for us folks. We ain’t got money. We need money. And God bless my Dixie, God bless her; Dixie makes our ends meet.

She does every time we’re in need; and that’s most all the time.
