Nostalgia. Good Do you still sing of the mountain bed we made of limbs and leaves? Do you still sing of the mountain bed we made of limbs and leaves?Rosin smells and turpentine smells from eucalyptus and pineYour arm was brown against the ground, your cheeks part of the skyBelow us the trees grew clumps of trees, raised families of trees, and theyThere in the shade and hid from the sun we freed our minds and learnedThe smell of your hair I know is still there, if most of our leaves are blownI learned the reason why man must work and how to dream big dreamsI crossed many states just to stand here now, my face all hot with tearsAll this day long I linger here and on in through the nightIf you’ve ever sung the refrain “This land was made for you and me,” then you’ve experienced, if even slightly, the emotion that Woody Guthrie was capable of evoking through mere words. Songs that run you down or poke fun at you on account of your bad luck or hard traveling.Many of those songs were played on a guitar with a sticker affixed.
Oooo.
Nostalgia. Names like Bob Dylan (who visited Guthrie regularly while he was hospitalized towards the end of his life), Pete Seeger, Jeff Tweedy, and Bruce Springsteen were greatly influenced by the work that Guthrie did.I came to know of his work through the Mermaid Avenue series of albums that were recorded by Billy Bragg and Wilco and put out at the end of the 1990’s. The lyrics of the verses reveal the love, experienced as real and as vivid as a mountaintop “roll in the hay” (a beautiful and apropos piece of imagery), but also reveal the death of that same love. And, to restate Woody’s contention: “I am out to fight those songs to my very last breath of air and my last drop of blood.” When Guthrie says that he wishes to fight “those songs,” I think he means he wants to fight those ideas that are defeating and negative.So, in the meantime, humanity strives for, or against, community.One day, however, we will be welcomed into true community. between the lines to you? I remember when I was a kid.
Yet, for all his shortcomings, just like all men, he had a gift to share, he had something to offer.Woody’s talents inspired an entire generation of folk artists who, if listed, are among the “Who’s Who” of American culture, at least as far as music is concerned.
Nostalgia.

I remember when I was a kid. Wilco Remember The Mountain Bed Lyrics. You laughed as I covered you over with leaves Face, breast, hips, and thighs Embed: Once we identify ourselves as the created and not the creator, and acknowledge Him for who He is and what He has done and will do (that is to say, worship), then I think we are on the right track to bridging the gap between community and isolation.Going back to the song, I think the reason why I think it so profound is that it highlights the pride of a man in “fighting the rivers and the seas, conquering time and space”…that is to say, fighting battles that are above his capability as the created, and therein lies the main point.As long as we continue to strive using our own strength, we will continue to feel varying degrees of isolation, which, in my opinion, is to welcome eventual defeat.

Not bad 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them, 4 and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.”5 And He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” And He said, “Write, for these words are faithful and true.”Despite the truth of them, I, unfortunately, just like all men, in my flesh tend to strive by the work of my own hands, to which Guthrie alludes in the line, “My greeds, desires, my cravings, hopes, my dreams inside me fight.” If only I could live by the Psalmist’s exhortation:Fill in your details below or click an icon to log in:
