Lovely song, but in my lack of englisheducation I misundersatood the line: ", The oranges piled in their creosote dumps" as I heard: "....oranges piled in their CRAY OF SAWDUST..."cray" was a wooden box i thought and "sawdust" used to fill and cushing the fruit.... Cray is not a word as it seems, perhaps I thought of "cradle"...
Swedes are better at hockey and producing blonde women ;)

My father was an illegal in Canada from Punjab. He managed to smuggle in his wife and all of his children were born in Quebec, Canada, where, in spite of the wealth we've brought to the province, we are still unwanted outsiders. I suggest that we just pull up stakes and move to Toronto or British Columbia.
And now in the USA , the old hatreds are back, if they ever left.
When will we all learn?

The Irish have a kinship with this song... Nearly all the Irish versions ring truer than the American ones. This is a song about injustice and oppression. No surprise.
This is MAGNIFICENT. *tears streaming*
Woody Guthrie's 1941 poem may be more relevant today than it was, when he wrote it, and when Marty Hoffman set it to music in. Think on the plight of the asylum-seekers in our lands.
Perhaps it is time for us to sing this song again?

I can believe that, Stannage17. Mexicans and Irishfolk share parallel lives. Do you know the beautiful story of St. Patrick's batallion in the Mexican-American war?
