Oxford
Liner notes
A midwest folk song about the quiet village of Oxford, Wisconsin, where the Union Pacific Railroad rumbles past Neenah Lake. The lyrics tell a story of local legends near Tuffy's Corner and the old Red Bridge, capturing the spirit of a community that gathers every 4th of July. The vocals are warm and nostalgic, reflecting the enduring history of a town established in 1854.
