Woody Guthrie
Submitted by peter on Wed, 07/14/2010 - 07:29

According to "The Writer's Almanac" he was born on this day in 1913. According to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woody_Guthrie he was born on this day in 1912.
Either way, here are some missing lyrics:

- As I went walking, I saw a sign there,
- And on the sign there, It said "no trespassing." [In another version, the sign reads "Private Property"]
- But on the other side, it didn't say nothing!
- That side was made for you and me.
- In the squares of the city, In the shadow of a steeple;
- By the relief office, I'd seen my people.
- As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking,
- Is this land made for you and me?
