Old Cap Moore was a bakery hand
Loaded trucks at night
The hungry cries of the alley kids
Made Old Cap close his eyes
He turned his back while the kids ran up
Grabbed a good hot loaf of bread
The kids run home, but when payday come
Cap Moore was in the red
Because the bakery boss did count the loss
And he wrote it in his book
He docked Old Cap full retail price
For the bread the kids had took
Old Cap he jammed the backdoor latch
So the door did fly unlocked
The hungry kids picked up that bread
For ten or twenty blocks
Mister, I'm a-tellin' you
Everything I've said is true
No alley kid had a friend as sure
As Old Cap Moore
That boss took the driver and Cap to court
But he could not make it stick
The driver swore, "I did not know
"Those doors had come unhitched."
Old Cap says, "Boss, I'ma quitting you
"And I am quitting now
"I've got friends to put me up
"In every house in town."
Mister, I'm a-tellin' you
What the old man said was true
It's an open hand and an open door
For Old Cap Moore
Mister, I'm tellin' you
One thing I know is true
To even the score we need a whole lot more
Like Old Cap Moore
Woody Guthrie (1912-1967) was an American singer-songwriter, musician, and activist widely considered a pioneer of modern American folk music. Born in Okemah, Oklahoma, Guthrie spent his childhood during the Great Depression, an experience that profoundly influenced his music. His songs often addressed social issues such as poverty, injustice, and labor, becoming a voice for workers and the oppressed. ?? Guthrie was a fervent supporter of the American Communist Party and used his music to promote socialist causes. His influence on American folk music is immense, inspiring generations of artists like Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Bruce Springsteen. Some of his most famous songs include 'This Land Is Your Land', 'Blowin' in the Wind' (though this was made famous by Bob Dylan) and 'Deportee (Plane Wreck at Los Gatos)'
