List Of Tin Pan Alley Quotes

The Words To Country Songs Are Very Earthy Like The Blues. They're Not As Dressed Up And The People Are Very Honest And Say, 'look, I Miss You Darlin', So I Went Out And Got Drunk In This Bar.' That's The Way You Say It. Where In Tin Pan Alley They Would Say, 'oh I Missed You Darling, So I Went To This Restaurant And I Sat Down And Had A Dinner For One.' That's Cleaned Up Now, You See? But Country And Blues Tells It Like It Is.
