"Fine Times" - Sung by LaRena Clark
A lumbercamp song with a bare-faced lie in the first verse! The tune seems to have a bit in common with"Sweet Betsy From Pike".
I suspect "Electric Light Concentrate" may be a brand of crosscut saw oil used to lubricate saw blades to keep them from binding.
Overall it's not a bad song, but I'd strongly suggest omitting or reworking the seventh verse.
Oil bottle to hang on tree - verse 3
Sawyers with oil bottle - verse 3
