this song is about Hanns Eisler being deported from the U.S. during the Red Scare of the 1950's. He was a talented composer, first exiled from Nazi Germany then from his new home in the United States. Woody Guthrie was a contemporary and this song is about his friend's exile.

what does "brother's on the vinegar truck" and "sister's in the tickly bush" mean?
-
this song and" ingrid bergman" are wonderful time capsules from around 60 years ago. Billy should be applauded for bringing them to life.
-
