Eleven Cent Cotton and Forty Cent Meat
Eleven Cent Cotton and Forty Cent Meat is an American song of the late 1920s, which was published in 1928 by Bob Miller and Emma Dermer.[1] The song details the economic situation as the Great Depression approached, when the price of cotton fell so low that farming became increasingly unviable economically and inflation had sent the prices of basic necessities skyrocketing.
