  You want the high lonesome brought down to earth –
  the value of gold – devoid of its worth.
  
  Like herbless reggae – or atheist Bach
  like love without romance and time with no clock –
  
  it’s smokeless jazz without the snap
  buried treasure without any map.
  
  It’s Andean flutes without the coca
  Moon with no shine – un Raton sin Boca
  
  You can’t have your culture without the Gospel
  like rain without water, it’s simply impossible.
  
  You can’t keep the tree without having roots
  or gather a harvest without the fruits.
  
  So get the hell gone with your atheist bluegrass
  lest someone imply you’re an unsaved jackass…
