[00:12.33] But right now, I'd like to talk a little bit about thi
[00:13.44] E you're hearing this is of course the green onions tune
[00:22.02] It was a very big hit in the early sixties in this country
[00:23.85] And of course it was composed and recorded in
[00:24.87] Memphis, Tennessee, right here
[00:25.86] E, United States Of America, you know people
[00:26.94] I believe that this tune can be acquainted
[00:27.78] With the great classical music around the world

[00:53.79] Your Beethoven, your Brahms
[00:54.33] Here in America you've got your Fred McDowell
[01:06.51] Your Irving Berlin, your Glenn Miller and your Booker T & The M.G.'s

[01:30.84] You see backs turned on this country
[01:50.85] Well people, I'm gonna tell you something,

[02:03.00] This is where we're gonna make our stand in this decade, yeah
[02:07.89] E, I've got something to say to the state department
[02:10.17] I say take that archaic Monroe doctrine
[02:10.98] And that Marshall plan that says we're supposed
[02:11.91] To police force the world and throw 'em out, let's
[02:14.64] Home for the next ten years people
[02:15.36] Right here in North America
[02:16.35] And enjoy the music and culture that is ours
[02:21.60] Yeah, I got one more thing to say
[02:24.03] I'm just talking about the music, people and what it does to me
[02:25.35] And that is as you look around the world
[02:26.40] You go to the Soviet Union or Great Britain
[02:31.47] Or France, you name it any country, ev
[02:32.97] Dy is doing flips and twists just to get into
[02:34.53] A genuine pair of American blue jeans
