“You are a songbird right this minute. Today you're a better songbird than you was yesterday, ‘cause you know a little bit more, you seen a little bit more, and all you got to do is just park yourself under a shade tree, or maybe at a desk, if you still got a desk, and haul off and write down some way you think this old world could be fixed so’s it would be twice as level and half as steep, and take the knocks out of it, and grind the valves, and tighten the rods, and take up the bearings, and put a boot in the casing, and make the whole trip a little bit smoother, and a little bit more like a trip instead of a trap.” – Woody

“Oh, you can't scare me, I'm sticking to the union,
I'm sticking to the union, I'm sticking to the union.” – Woody Guthrie, Union Maid

One of the 12 songs featured in the current exhibition, “A Dozen Loops: The Radical Voice of Woody Guthrie,” “Union Maid” was written by Woody in 1940, shortly before he joined the Almanac Singers. This part of the exhibit explores Woody's membership in the New York-based pro-union folk group.
