Description:
The Makin's of the U.S.A.<br/><br/>This is an unusual song since it promotes a commercial product. <br/><br/>It stands out for an additional reason: it suggests American soldiers fighting in France were somehow short of tobacco supplies. I never read this in any history book.<br/><br/>Maybe there was a shortage. The song suggests regular folks at home were the ones who should make up for the deficiency. But I always thought a government should supply what is needed by troops deployed overseas. But is tobacco really \
