There's a recording on YouTube, but it sounds like a bootleg with really bad acoustics, and it would be very hard to transcribe the lyrics. Nevertheless, I may try it if nobody else does. Does anybody know if there is a better recording out there somewhere? Spotify doesn't have it, and AllMusic.com doesn't mention it. Other people have recorded songs by the same title, but none of them seems to be the same as Phil Ochs' song. |
