The Cocoa and Oatmeal [Uncle Ob Glover's Song]
Song composed during the 'Depression' days when the poor families of Braggs Island could hardly subsist on six cents a day. Obtaning the 'dole' meant rowing to 'pond' eighteen miles down the bay. No transcript; tape apparently very poor quality and could not be indexed.
