True for its time, and very sad. That was gradeschool in the 50s and now it's a lot worse. There's a new batch of lies that is bringing us down fast.

[dominicksmeech]

Interesting peice of history, it's nice to look back, see how far we've come dispite our flaws. Not to mention being glad we don't practice some of the crazy shit we used to.

[calito]

I am a fan of Peter Seeger but loved more the Tom Paxton's version. Tom puts some kind of sarcastic tone in the song that my good ol boy Pete would never have.

[maulana_alif_ramadhan]

[arundesu]

Nothing's right in this song. But it's so catchy. I liked it.
