Here is my first film! Let me know what you think. The song, "The Fall of '29" is sung by an early country and Western band, The Light Crust Doughboys" I couldn't transcribe the entire song- the audio is admittedly poor- but here are the first two stanzas.
Well hello there, Mr. Ice Man
Where have I seen your face?
Please don't try to tease me Mister
just because I lost the race.
I was working as a banker worth a million for a time
but I lost the whole Caboodle
In the Fall of 29
In the Fall of 29
That's when we started sliding
In a call for 50/50
you lost yours and I lost mine
But it made us all more human
In the Fall of 29
Hey there Mr. Taxi driver
Where have I seen you before?
Listen buddy I'm the fella
who'd stocks and bonds galore
My office was on Wall Street
Everything was going fine
when my stocks and bonds all vanished
in the Fall of 29
Nomad, you did a wonderful job.
