Lyr Req: One by One (Utah Phillips)

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.

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,

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!

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