I was so familiar with that song in my younger years I remember one day in high school sitting in class and out of boredom writing all the lyrics to it word for word from memory.

I was raised about 25 miles north of Stockbridge Mass so this song resonates deeply for me. Life as Woody describes it used to be as simple as he says. Thanks for ressurecting this thread every year.

Congratulations! You've now lived long enough to see the counter culture go from unwashed, long haired, jobless, dope smoking hippies, to the counter culture being clean cut conservative people with jobs, short hair (for the men) and traditional family values.

thanks!

always enjoy this thread. back then you had these strange creatures - they could sing, compose, play a guitar, and tell you a story with their songs. now? 3 chords, one repeated line, very little talent other than marketing themselves.

Interestingly enough, it's a protest against an overbearing government. And to think we call them hippies...
