The Runt (MP3)

Dave Rich  -  The Runt 

If you didn't already know it, October is National Bullying Prevention Month.  And, boy, do I have a horrifying theme song to offer up for the cause.

Believe it or not, this song's been recorded at least three times.  Hank Snow did it for his 1966 RCA-Victor album Gospel Train and a guy named Dick Miles put it on a Capitol LP around the same time.  Miles' version can be heard on this Music To Spazz By With Dave The Spazz program.

Seriously? I expected it to end with some classic maudlin ending like:

"Because... that runt... was me.
No, wait. He's dead, couldn't be me.
That runt... was my old man.
No, wait..."
