Description
" 'Old Man Trump' is a song with lyrics written by Woody Guthrie about the racist housing practices and discriminatory rental policies of his landlord Fred Trump. The lyrics were written in 1954 but it was never recorded by Guthrie. In January 2016, Will Kaufman, a Guthrie scholar and professor of American literature and culture at the University of Central Lancashire, unearthed the handwritten lyrics while performing research for a book about Guthrie at the Woody Guthrie Archives in Tulsa, Oklahoma."
