I was looking at homes in Butte, MT and thought of this song.

It’s tells a story of working hard all your life just to survive.

Butte gets a bad rap, but it seems to be a nice place near some great country. And it was the home of Elmer Keith.

Been through Butte a number of times. I'd have a hard time settling for air and water quality, there, with so many better places in Montana. That's me, though. Each to their own, as always.

I've never been to Butte and I've never heard that song before.
I can relate to the song to a point. Is Butte a hard place too?

Copper mining tailings are right beside the town.

I’m with you on air and water. Still it’s tempting to buy a million dollar house for half price.

Little pricey, small detached garage and too much carpeting, I like hardwood floors. Keep looking.

If you can stand the winters in Montana then more power to you. If you ever read Elmer Keith's biography even he got out of their after one very bad winter and he never went back.

One advantage for Gene and winters in Montana is he’s retired. So if it get’s too cold or snowy just stay in and keep the fire stoked. Different story if you have to get in the car every day and head to work.
