Bagley
Liner notes
A country song about Bagley, Iowa, echoing the rhythm of the old Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad that put the town on the map in 1881. The lyrics paint a picture of kids playing at the ball diamond in the city park and folks gathering down on Main Street. A steady acoustic strum and pedal steel guitar reflect the enduring spirit of this small Guthrie County community along Highway 141.
