Ain't Got No Home/Old Man Trump (with lyrics, Woody Guthrie-Cover by 101)

Woody Guthrie wrote his Dust Bowl ballad ‚Ain’t Got No Home‘ in the 1930s. In 1950, he moved to Beach Haven, a public housing project in Brooklyn. The name of his Landlord: Fred Trump - Donald Trump’s father. During the two years Guthrie lived there, he figured out that black people weren’t welcome as tenants in Fred Trump’s housing complex, and therefore he wrote a new verse for ‚Ain’t Got No Home‘: Beach Haven ain’t my home I just can’t pay this rent My money’s down the drain And my soul is badly bent Beach Haven looks like heaven Where no black folks come to roam No, no, no, old man Trump! Beach Haven ain’t my home! This verse was unknown until Will Kaufman unearthed it in 2016 while researching for a book about Woody Guthrie in the Guthrie Center’s archives. There is no recording of ‚Ain’t Got No Home’ with the Trump Verse by Woody Guthrie himself.
