Woodie was a commie.

[Buckeye McFrog]

As I was walkin’
Through open country
I saw a sign
Said “Private Property”
But on the other side
It didn’t say nuthin’
That side was made for you and me

From one of the latter verses that you NEVER hear.

[Gay State Conservative]

Woodie was a commie.

Of the very filthiest type!

[Leaning Right]

> Woodie was a commie. <

During the war Woodie carried around a guitar that said “This machine kills Fascists”.

Why say Fascists and not Nazis, a young person might ask. It’s because the Nazis were National Socialists. And leftists would rather you not know that.

A lot of a-hole musicians hide behind “patriotism”/1st Amendment protest and a song may seem to go USA,it is really f-USA. 60’s “classic rock” is full of it.

[Verginius Rufus]

His son Arlo Guthrie is best known for "Alice's Restaurant," which is at heart an anti-Vietnam War song. For whatever that's worth.

Robert Penn Warren was born in Guthrie, Kentucky, but I don't there is any connection.
