@kctvirginia What an IGNORANT thing to say - don't you know that music does not come from a vacuum. Folk music is passed down. AP Carter travelled all round the south to find songs he could use. Those were not "original". The majority of Woody Guthrie's songs are taken from Carter Family melodies. Take "this land is your land". That comes from "When the worlds on fire", or Guthrie's "Tom Joad", that comes from "John Hardy was a desperate little man". Arlo simply followed the folk tradition.
PERSONS WHO DISLIKE THIS SONG ARE AFRAID OF THE WORD "WORK." HA HA! WORK WILL MAKE YOU TOUGH. WORK WILL MAKE YOU A MAN. SWING A PIPE-WRENCH ALL DAY AS I DO, AND, IF NECESSARY.......YOU HAVE THE STRENGTH TO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF (ON THE STREET)..........LIKE I SAID.........IF NECESSARY. THAT'S WHAT WORK WILL DO FOR YA!! AND, PUT A FEW BUCKS IN THE POCKET AS WELL!!!!
i wish i had some hard work other than what i create........I love me job thats the beauty of the USA.

Now I know the genesis of Alice's Restaurant. Should have known that Arlo didn't have the talent for something original.
