Can someone help me identify this wildflower, pretty in large clumps by roadside (MA). Not sure if annual or perennial - probably annual as roots pulled out easily.

I believe it's a tickseed sunflower. We have those growing wild all along the ditches too, and they are blooming now. I am a yellow fanatic and am seriously thinking about digging some for my yard. They must be hardy because up until lately, we have had no rain at all.
Great picture ~ I love yellow!!
Edited to add ~ if these are annual then they certainly are self-seeders because we get them in profusion every year in September.
