Vigilante
Man Woody Guthrie - also by Ry Cooder Tell me, what is a vigilante man? (2) Does he carry a shotgun and a pistol in his hand? Ive been hearing his name all over the land Have you seen that vigilante man? (3) Ive been hearing his name all over the land Rainy nights down in the engine house Sleeping just as still as a mouse Man came along, chased us out in the rain Was that a vigilante man? Stormy days, we passed the time away Sleeping in some good warm place Man came along, we gave him a little race Was that a vigilante man? Preacher Casey was just a working man Said: Unite, all you working man Killed him in a river, some strange man Was that a vigilante man? Why does a vigilante man (2) Carry that sowed-off shotgun in his hand? Would he shoot his brother and sister down? Well, I rambled around from town to town (2) They herded us around like a wild herd of cattle Was that a vigilante man? Have you seen that vigilante man ? (3) Ive been hearing his name all over the land * as recorded on my CD ![]() ![]() |
