Hi all, 
  Pete Seeger tells the following story:

 "When Woody Guthrie was singing hillbilly songs on a little Los Angeles
radio station in the late 1930s, he used to mail out a small mimeographed
songbook to listeners who wanted the words to his songs, On the bottom of
one page appeared the following:
  'This song is Copyrighted in U.S., under Seal of Copyright # 154085, for
a period of 28 years, and anybody caught singin it without our permission,
will be mighty good friends of ourn, cause we don't give a dern. Publish
it. Write it. Sing it. Swing to it. Yodel it. We wrote it, that's all we
wanted to do.'"
