Is "On The Farm" from "New Girl in Town" the first song about sexual abuse,

at least on Broadway? They change a few words on the OCR-- taking out "with those vicious sons of bitches on the farm", but it's actually a pretty strong number either way, letting the audience know what Anna Christie has gone through in her past. Gwen Verdon, Thelma Ritter and company are great on the recording. It's a really fine score, btw.
