Billy Bragg - Woody Guthrie, I Ain't Got No Home In This World Anymore (Wien, 1.6.2012) - YouTube

Woody Guthrie song is as true today as when it was written 70+ years ago for a lot of people... 
Oh, the gamblin' man is rich an' the workin' man is poor, 
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore ...Monte

I ain't got no home, I'm just a-roamin' 'round,Just a wandrin' worker, I go from town to town.And the police make it hard wherever I may goAnd I ain't got no home in this world anymore.
My brothers and my sisters are stranded on this road,A hot and dusty road that a million feet have trod;Rich man took my home and drove me from my doorAnd I ain't got no home in this world anymore.
Was a-farmin' on the shares, and always I was poor;My crops I lay into the banker's store.My wife took down and died upon the cabin floor,And I ain't got no home in this world anymore.
I mined in your mines and I gathered in your cornI been working, mister, since the day I was bornNow I worry all the time like I never did before'Cause I ain't got no home in this world anymore
Now as I look around, it's mighty plain to seeThis world is such a great and a funny place to be;Oh, the gamblin' man is rich an' the workin' man is poor,And I ain't got no home in this world anymore
