WOODY SONG is Lyrics of a Woody Guthrie sort of song, since it's his Honor Year and all....

WOODY SONG

Lately been closer to Heaven
Lately been farther from Hell
Gonna plants Roots a bit firmer
Like this old Earth here quite well

Been almost poor but not really
Been rich in friends and in Love
Ain't had quite all that I wanted
But I have got to say: had Enough

Know that I'm not a Great Woman
Still I do the best that I can
For each Creature that passes my doorway
Each Woman and Child and each Man

Lately we're thinkin' about movin'
Up to the Mountains above
To be close to the Clouds and the deep Winds
Far from the Ocean I love

I'll just have to travel the highways
To get to those Shores now and then
To stand in the Waves and be taken
In by that Sea like a Friend

And then I'll come back to those high Hills
I'll sing my New Songs with the Best
An' lay my head down near my True Love's
An' lay all my Troubles to rest

Lately been closer to Heaven
Lately been farther from Hell
Gonna plant Roots a bit firmer
Like this old Earth here quite well
Like this dear Earth here quite well
