Lots of people in the world like listening to folk songs. A folk song is a song that is “from the p ”. Every c
has folk songs. Usually, they are quiet, simple songs. People often sing them with just a g
of a few other instruments. Some folk songs are so o
that no one knows who wrote them or when they were written. Other folk songs are by songwriters who are interested in people’s l
and experiences. Woody Guthrie was one of those songwriters.
Woody Guthrie was born in a very small town in Oklahoma in 1912. Guthrie first learned to play the guitar from his grandfather in 1917. He soon began to p with other people in the area. Step by step, people liked his music.
In 1929, the economy was bad. Many people were not working, and there were many poor people. Guthrie began to travel around the country looking for work. Guthrie became interested in singing about people and their p during this period.
In the winter of 1940, Guthrie decided to go to New York. On his way, he created “This Land is Your Land.” The song talks about places and things people love. The last line of the song says, “This land was made for you and me.” These words tell people that e is equal.
Woody Guthrie died in 1967, but his music l on. His music is an important part of American h
and culture. And to this day, people love to sing the folk songs written by him.
