Song makes you think, well at least I do and I am white but damn good and sad song.

"He wasn't only speaking against captial punishment"
Well said, and thanks for the additional information.
I don't think Woodie's guitar literally killed anyone, though.
Peace!

@shas1814 He wasn't only speaking against captial punishment, he was talking about lynchings and the use of the slipknot to keep blacks in their place, whether it was applied by a lawman or a lynch mob.
"Who makes the laws for that slipknot ... I don't know who makes the laws for that sllpknot". But the law let lynch mobs get away with what they did.
This is more an anti-lynching song than anti-death penalty. A man who's guitar kills evil doers is not likely to oppose capital punishment.

My high school just performed The Grapes of Wrath last night, and we used all Woody Guthrie music. So great.

A brave fighter.
Speaking out against capital punishment
was VERY unpopular in his day.
Woody has my undying respect.

I bought an old LP of his, and this was a favourite.
