Among the Oak & Ash Joseph Hillström 1879-1915歌词


介绍：
First off, yes, this is a real person. In 1900 or so, he immigrated to the United States from Sweden. Upon his arrival his nme would be shortened from Joseph Hillstorm to Joe Hill. He was a day laborer and songwriter who eventually went to work for the IWW to organize unions. His most famous songs may be "Hallelujah", "I'm A Bum!" and "Pie In The Sky When You Die". His style of taking melodies already in existence and changing the lyrics to fit his particular need would eventually be adopted by oody Guthrie and later still by Bob Dylan. This approach itself is now very much a part of folk convention.
