JB And Moonshine Band - Where's Woody Guthrie lyrics

[Verse 1:] Where's Woody Guthrie when we need him to shoot his guitar gun Wage war on injustice and spread courage with his tongue He fought for the man on the bottom and he sang for the voiceless ones Where's Woody Guthrie when we need him to shoot his guitar... gun And where's Johnny Cash when we need him to be the man in black Take the gospel into places where hope it turn it's back Prodigals and prisoners, they couldn't relate to a man like that Where's Johnny Cash when we need him to be the man... in black [Chorus:] These days I've been starvin' for that kind of honesty Some guitar playing poet who speaks to the best in me Yah... That I might fight for what is right when I'd rather turn and run Where's Woody Guthrie when we need him to shoot his guitar... gun [Verse 2:] And where's John Lennon when we need him to sing us song of peace And ask us to imagine that love's all we need [love is all we need] He spoke truth to power til' they shot him on the New York street Where's John Lennon when we need him to sing us song... of peace [Chorus:] Cause these days I've been starvin' for that kind of honesty Some guitar playing poet who speaks to the best in me Yah... That I might fight for what is right when I'd rather turn and run Where's Woody Guthrie when we need him to shoot his guitar... [Outro:] Yah... Where's Johnny Cash, Wailing[?], and Hank[?] Was another one of them gon' come? Where's Woody Guthrie when we need him to shoot his guitar.. gun Shoot his guitar gun [Instrumental]
