This machine kills fascists That's what it was born to do Shared time with Woody Guthrie As the Oklahoma cold winds blew They played each other for the people Moving many a poor man's soul Riding the fine line of the times But not enough time to grow old Feeling the pangs of hunger In the knowledge of right and wrong Took what was left out of rights best And tuned it up in song Where this machine kills fascists Cause that's what it was born to do Hung out with Woody Guthrie For a time of two

This Machine Kills Fascists
This machine kills fascists That's what it was born to do Shared time with Woody Guthrie As the Oklahoma cold winds blew They played each other for the people Moving many a poor man's soul Riding the fine line of the times But not enough time to grow old Feeling the pangs of hunger In the knowledge of right and wrong Took what was left out of rights best And tuned it up in song Where this machine kills fascists Cause that's what it was born to do Hung out with Woody Guthrie For a time of two
Woody Guthrie had "This machine kills fascists" written on his guitar...
