In Their Words: “We watched the first episode of Ken Burnsā Country Music and Eleanor wrote this after trying — unsuccessfully — to go to sleep.” — Chris Masterson
āI had Maybelle Carterās guitar in my head and a little bit of Townes Van Zandtās and Woody Guthrieās spirits guiding me. I already had the first verse, which is more abstract, written down in my notebook and then I started thinking about the plight of immigrants today and the rest of the song just flowed out.ā — Eleanor Masterson
