Subject: 'Two Good Men' From: GUEST,Gary Date: 18 Jul 01 - 05:17 PM I've got the lyrics to Woody Guthrie's 'Two Good Men ', but I can't seem yo figure the chord changes. I'm sure that its really simple, but I was wondering if anyone had the chords already... A posting here would save me and my tin ear loads of sweat during this humid summer. Thanks G |
Subject: ADD: Two Good Men (Woody Guthrie) From: Joe Offer Date: 24 Jul 01 - 04:53 AM I usually go here (click) for Woody Guthrie lyrics, and that's where I found "Two Good Men." Can't help with the chords, but maybe this will help somebody's memory -Joe Offer- TWO GOOD MEN (Woody Guthrie) Say, there, did you hear the news? Sacco worked at trimmin' shoes; Vanzetti was a peddlin' man, Pushed his fish cart with his hand.
Two good men a long time gone,
Sacco's born across the sea,
Sacco sailed the sea one day,
Sacco's wife three children had;
Sacco earned his bread and butter
I'll tell you if you ask me
Judge Thayer told his friends around
I'll tell you the prosecutor's name,
Vanzetti docked in nineteen eight;
All you people ought to be like me,
Well, I ain't got time to tell this tale,
All you people in Suassos Lane, |

Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: 'Two Good Men' From: Mark Cohen Date: 24 Jul 01 - 05:13 AM The beautiful song "Two Good Arms" by Charlie King is also about Sacco and Vanzetti. There's another discussion of songs about them on this thread. "Two Good Arms" is not in the Digital Tradition, but it is in Rise Up Singing. Aloha, Mark |

Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: 'Two Good Men' From: Wolfgang Date: 25 Jul 01 - 04:23 AM There's no need any longer to refresh for the question has been answered by the link to Christy Moore's webpage. However, it is easier to find it there if you know that he uses the title 'Sacco and Vanzetti'. Wolfgang |

Subject: RE: Chords Req: Two Good Men (Woody Guthrie) From: GUEST,ordinary man Date: 07 Nov 11 - 06:30 AM Thanks for that very sensible and helpful post guest.What a refreshing change for some one to answer a request with the right help. To many times on this forum we get aload of info and half formulated and self rightouse opinion from folk who smugly assume that you want something that you have not asked for :if some one asks for chords or tune one would expect they would be conversant with the song? if chords are asked for lets give 'em chords!! |
