1. Sad but also beautiful
My sister’s and I sang it as children and opposed the Viet Nam war. We sang it in the back of pick up trucks and at peace rally’s. I have always been struck by Dylan’s ability to write a new song that is an instant classic. Like Woody Guthrie did with This Land Is Your Land.
