Coming into Guthrie


Arlo Davy Guthrie (10 de juliol, 1947) és un cantant nord-americà de Folk. Com el seu pare, Woody Guthrie, Arlo canta cançons de protesta contra injustícies socials. Un dels seus treballs més coneguts és "Alice's Restaurant Massacree", un blues cantat satíric de 18 minuts de durada.


There's a guy with a ticket to Mexico
No, he couldn't look much stranger
Walking in the hall with his things and all
Smiling, said he was the Lone Ranger



And I proceeded to tell him the story of the twenty seven eight-by-ten
Colour glossy pictures with the circles and arrows and the paragraph on
The back of each one, and he stopped me right there and said, 'Kid, I want
You to go and sit down on that bench that says Group W ... NOW kid!!'
