Hey
You are right...it is straight out of a time capsule. The song was actually written by a cousin for my grandfather (Ron Paul) in 1976 in his bid for Congress. Rand asked me to change the words and update it a bit...
It serves as a right of passage in the family...learn to play the guitar, learn the Ballad of Ron/Rand Paul.
I know it is not an award winner, but we love to sing it, and hopefully it will get stuck in people's head and help the campaign out in Kentucky!
