Christmas In Washington

E It's Christmastime in Washington A The Democrats rehearsed B Gettin' into gear for four more years A E Things not gettin' worse E The Republicans drink whiskey neat A And thanked their lucky stars B They said, 'He cannot seek another term A E They'll be no more fdrs' E I sat home in Tennessee A Staring at the screen B With an uneasy feeling in my chest A And I'm wonderin' what it means E So come back Woody Guthrie A Come back to us now B Tear your eyes from paradise A E And rise again somehow E If you run into Jesus A Maybe he can help you out B A B E Come back Woody Guthrie to us now E I followed in your footsteps once A Back in my travelin' days B Somewhere I failed to find your trail A E Now I'm stumblin' through the haze But there's killers on the highway now A And a man can't get around B So I sold my soul for wheels that roll A E Now I'm stuck here in this town E So come back Woody Guthrie A Come back to us now B Tear your eyes for paradise A E And rise again some how E If you run into Jesus A Maybe he can help,you out B A B E Come back Woody Guthrie to us now E There's foxes in the hen house A Cows out in the corn B The unions have been busted A E Their proud red banners torn E To listen to the radio A You'd think that all was well B But you and me and Cisco know A B E It's going straight to hell E So come back, Emma Goldman A Rise up, old Joe Hill B The barracades are goin' up A E They cannot break our will E Come back to us, Malcolm X A And Martin Luther King B We're marching into Selma A B E As the bells of freedom ring E So come back Woody Guthrie A Come back to us now B Tear your eyes for paradise A B E And rise again some how
