Dedicated to Trump: "Worried Man Blues"

"Worried Man Blues":   Woodie Guthrie

"It takes a worried man to sing a worried song,

It takes a worried man to sing a worried song...

I'm worried now but I won't be worried long.


Went across the river, I lay down to sleep,

Went across the river, I lay down to sleep'

When I woke up, had shackles on my feet!


Twenty one links of chain  around my leg;

Twenty-one links of chain around my leg;

And on each link, there's an initial of my name.


The train ride is 21 coaches long;

And my gal I love is on that train and gone!


Asked that judge what's gonna be fine;

Asked that judge what's gonna be the fine;

Twenty-one years on the rooky mountain line!


Twenty one years to pay my awful crime!

Twenty one one years to pay my awful crime!

And I still got ninety-nine!!!"
