“Hungry Eyes” #1 Country 5/10/1969

Growing up, “The Grapes Of Wrath” was required viewing in our house. Dad made us watch the movie of Depression-era Okies migrating to California EVERY time it appeared on WTTG (Channel 5) in Washington, DC. But then, Merle Haggard lived out that story. Hag’s tribute about what his mother and the other Okies endured was this week’s #1 country hit in 1969.
