Song To Woody |
I’m out here a thousand miles from my home |
Walkin' a road other men have gone down |
I’m seein' your world of people and things |
Your paupers and peasants and princes and kings |
Hey, hey Woody Guthrie, I wrote you a song |
'Bout a funny ol' world that’s a-comin' along |
Seems sick an' it’s hungry, it’s tired an' it’s torn |
It looks like it’s a-dyin' an' it’s hardly been born |
Hey, Woody Guthrie, but I know that you know |
All the things that I’m a-sayin' an' a-many times more |
I’m a-singin' you the song, but I can’t sing enough |
'Cause there’s not many men that done the things that you’ve done |
Here’s to Cisco an' Sonny an' Leadbelly too |
An' to all the good people that traveled with you |
Here’s to the hearts and the hands of the men |
That come with the dust and are gone with the wind |
I’m a-leaving' tomorrow, but I could leave today |
Somewhere down the road someday |
The very last thing that I’d want to do |
Is to say I’ve been hittin' some hard travelin' too |
