About "Cocaine Blues (Bad Lee Brown)" by Woody Guthrie

Guthrie's Bad Lee Brown is a ghost story told in a saloon voice, the cocaine blues a slow poison dressed as a good time. The demo's rough charm can't hide the dread underneathβ€”a man laughing at his own ruin. It's the sound of a party where the door is already locked.
