[Verse 1]
I'm out here a thousand miles from my home
Walking a road other men have gone down
I'm seeing your world of people and things
Hear paupers and peasants and princes and kings
[Verse 2]
Hey, hey, Woody Guthrie, I wrote you a song
Bout a funny old world that's coming along
Seems sick and it's hungry, it's tired and it's torn
It looks like it's dying and it's hardly been born
[Verse 3]
Hey, Woody Guthrie, but I know that you know
All the things I'm saying and many times more
I'm singing every song but I can't sing enough
Cause there's not many men done the things that you done
[Verse 4]
Here's to Cisco and Sonny and Leadbelly, too
And to all the good people that traveled with you
Here's to the hearts and the hands of the men
That come with the dust and are gone with the wind
[Verse 5]
I'm a-leaving tomorrow but I could leave today
Somewhere down the road someday
The very last thing that I'd want to do
Is to say I'd been hitting some hard traveling too
I'm out here a thousand miles from my home
Walking a road other men have gone down
I'm seeing your world of people and things
Hear paupers and peasants and princes and kings
[Verse 2]
Hey, hey, Woody Guthrie, I wrote you a song
Bout a funny old world that's coming along
Seems sick and it's hungry, it's tired and it's torn
It looks like it's dying and it's hardly been born
[Verse 3]
Hey, Woody Guthrie, but I know that you know
All the things I'm saying and many times more
I'm singing every song but I can't sing enough
Cause there's not many men done the things that you done
[Verse 4]
Here's to Cisco and Sonny and Leadbelly, too
And to all the good people that traveled with you
Here's to the hearts and the hands of the men
That come with the dust and are gone with the wind
[Verse 5]
I'm a-leaving tomorrow but I could leave today
Somewhere down the road someday
The very last thing that I'd want to do
Is to say I'd been hitting some hard traveling too
