Woodrow Wilson Guthrie

… was born in Okemah, Oklahoma, 99 years ago today. We, of course, know him as Woody Guthrie.

A folk song is what’s wrong and how to fix it, or it could be whose hungry and where their mouth is, or whose out of work and where the job is or whose broke and where the money is or whose carrying a gun and where the peace is—that’s folk lore and folks made it up because they seen that the politicians couldn’t find nothing to fix or nobody to feed or give a job of work.
