Vigilante Man
Words and Music-Woody Guthrie
Have you seen that vigilante Man
Have you seen that vigilante man
Have you seen that vigilante man
I've been hearing his name all over this land
Tell me what is a vigilante man
tell me what is a vigilante man
does he carry a club and pistol in his hand
would he shoot his brother and sister down
Rainy night down at the engine house
sleeping just as good as a mouse
a man came a long and chased us out in the rain
was that a vigilante man
Have you seen that vigilante man
Have you seen that vigilante man
have you seen that vigilante man
I've bee hearing his name all over this world
Preacher casey was just a working man
he said unite all you working men
They killed him in a river some strange strange men
was that a vigilante man
I traveled round from town to town
I traveled round from town to town
They herded us around like a wild herd of cattle
Was that your vigilante man
Chorus
Tell me why does a vigilante man
why does a vigilante man
carry that sawed off shotgun in his hand
would he shoot his brother and sister down
