Enjoy these three songs about Florida's waters.

Robert Orr “Bobby” Hicks was a legendary Florida folk music songwriter best known for his celebration of the Florida cracker native and staunch defense of the Florida environment in story, song and a roaring activism that scared land developers, water polluters and, even, his own audiences, into paying close attention to a man whose passion for Florida and hatred for those who would despoil it knew absolutely no limits. He took no hostages. He told no lies. He never backed down. “I’m Florida,” he sung out at every show. “Need I say more?”
