Shall we get our fair share of abuse today
in this flyover town, my hands stained with
ink and it’s pouring down rain, is a protest
like a ballgame postponed on account of the
weather, shall we ask the first weathermen
which way the wind blows? The tools of the
laborer abandoned on the ground, the half-full
bushels left in the field, do we run with them
like wolves in a pack, like a stampede of
mustangs, who gets to call this place home?
From whom was it taken, to whom is it owed?
I have my banjo tuned to the people’s key,
can you tell me, what would Woody do?
