From the recording Revolution Now
Lyrics
Need a Progressive Woman
(Revolutionary Mind)
Words by Woody Guthrie. Music by Sandy O & Pat Humphries/Emma’s
Revolution.
Night is here again, baby,
I'm stretched out on my bed
Seeing all kinds of crazy notions
Running through my head
I need a progressive woman
I need an awfully liberal woman
There ain’t no reactionary baby
Can ease my revolutionary mind
One hand is on my pillow
One hand is on my head
I see a million nightmares
Tearing around inside my head
I need a progressive woman
I need an awful liberal woman
I need a social conscious woman
To ease my revolutionary mind.
If I could only make you see, babe,
I ache and pain and bleed
I know you’d come a running
If you blistered both your feet
