Yo, Tom. Unless you mean "Orphan Train" which has the phrase
'one by one' in it, then Quokka has the answer, buddy.

Alas, once again my memory let me down. Indeed, I do think that it is the song written by Woody Guthrie. I found a previous thread with the lyrics.Thanks for setting me straight, Quokka!

Woody Guthrie wrote the words to a song called 'One by One' that appears on the Billy Bragg/Wilco album called 'Mermaid Avenue'. Don't know if it's the same song, but it is beautiful.
Cheers,
Quokka

Some time ago I heard Kate Wolf sing a song by Utah Philips, I believe. As far as I recall the title was "One by One". It was a simple but beautiful melody. I taped it, but somehow lost or accidentally erased the tape.If anyone can find the lyrics for me it would be great.
