Michelle Shocked (born Dallas, Texas, February, 1962) is the stage name of Michelle Karen Johnston, an American singer-songwriter.
As a young feminist, she left Texas to travel, Kerouac-style, and was caught up in Reagan-era grassroots politics. Her musical career was ignited by a bootleg recording made around a Kerrville Folk Festival campfire on a Sony walkman. Released in England as ‘The Texas Campfire Tapes’ without Shocked’s authority, its success abroad enticed Mercury Records to offer the newcomer a recording contract.

{title:Strawberry Jam} {st:As recorded by Michelle Shocked on the album "Arkansas Traveler"}
[D]Saturday morning [E]found me itch'n [A]To get on over to my [D]gramdma's kitchen The sweetest little berries were [E]cookin' up right And then we'd [A]put 'em in a canning jar and [D]seal it up tight
{C:Chorus} {soc} We were makin' [E]jam [A] Strawberry [E]jam [A] If you want the best [E]jam [A] You've got to make your [D]own {eoc}
Now we've got Smucker's, Welch's, and [E]Knot's Berry Farm But a little [A]homemade jam never did a [D]body no harm A little local motion is [E]all you really need To [A]close down those corporate [D]jam factories
{C:Chorus} We've got a little revolution, and it's [E]sweepin' the land Now once more [A]everybody's makin' [D]homemade jam Now you just call up your friends on the [E]telephone You invite 'em on [A]over to your house and make some [D]jam of your own
