WOODY SEZ ~ “Every living song I’ve ever made up is a hard times song of protest.”
WOODY SEZ ~ "Life has got a habit on not standing hitched. You got to ride it like you find it. You got to change with it. If a day goes by that you don't change some of your old notions for new ones, that is just about like trying to milk a dead cow."
WOODY SEZ ~ "If you walk across my camera, I will flash the world your story"
WOODY SEZ ~
"Change the pen and change the ink
Change the way you talk and think
Change the tubes and change the tires
Change the things your heart desires
Change your makeup change your curl
Change the way of this changing world."

WOODY SEZ ~
"I’m gonna tell you fascists
You may be surprised
The people in this world
Are getting organized
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose...
People of every color
Marching side to side
Marching ‘cross these fields
Where a million fascists died..."

WOODY SEZ ~ "All of my words, if not well put, nor well taken, are well meant."
On February 23, 1940, Woody penned what would be his most well-known song, This Land Was Made For You and Me.
At the bottom of the lyric he noted, "All you can write is what you see". As an observational writer, Woody documented history, stories of hardship, racism, and injustice in his songs.
"In the shadow of the steeple I saw my people,
By the relief office I seen my people;
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking
Is this land made for you and me?"
Our gratitude to Pete Seeger, Bruce Springsteen, and Tao Rodríguez-Seeger for giving us our favorite performance of this song...
