The song may have been written about the Dust Bowl,but errily and uncannily,seems very relevant and applicable to todays migrant workers. It also speaks of the human condition,therefore,universal in message. No politics here,just ethics...about hard-working folks trying to earn a fair and honest living in order to pay the rent and feed their families.
You,kind sir,have done Woody's song great justice with your soulful,sincere interpretation..
Thank you sir. Not enough changes as long as we have a class at the top of the heap that spends every waking moment scheming to enslave others with their money....
You sure know Woody's songbook well! I can't say I knew this one. It's a shame he lost all his marbles and died. I like his songs more than I do Bob Dylan's. I am always impressed by how cool, calm and collected you seem to be. You are a real professional!
Hey thanks man, I appreciate your input because you are a real musician and I really love the videos you guys do. They are always positive and uplifting....
Nothing like a Woody Guthrie song sung by someone who believes in what they're singing. Great job with a terrific song and thanks for keeping Woody's songs alive. 5 stars for you, sir!
Yeah Mike did a great job, and it wasn't easy because the system was cranked and he had to deal with 5 different acts, from bluegrass to jazz to blues to grateful dead....
Greetings
Kind Sir...

Why do I think of Steinbeck when hearing this? Did he have a book or short story named PofP, do you know?
Regardless, great stuff Archie, Thank you!

You're probably thinking of The Grapes Wrath, which dealt with the same subject matter.
