Here's to you Woody Leadbelly and Pete
And you fellow traveles who walked the same streets
To Aunt Molly and Josh White, Big Bill and his blues
We all want to be fellow travelers too

03:58
|
|||
|
Alternative facts, alternative facts
Don't worry about scruples or walking it back
Say it with brass, cover your ass
With enough double talk you might not leave tracks

8. 15 An Hour
03:33
|
|||
|
If they paid their share, if they paid their share
We'd have 15 an hour and a union job
If they paid their own damn share

9. A Workers Song
03:49
|
|||
|
Like a bird that learns to fly we can fall from the nest
And we may tremble in the storm
But if a blind man can see the truth with an open heart
A worker can sing a workers song
|

||||
|
Let's build a wall around Jesus, we don't want no immigrants here
He was a dark-skinned Jew and I'm sure he smelled too
And I bet that he even liked queers
Let's build a wall around Jesus, I can't believe he wasn't even white
He was born in a manger - and I don't trust strangers
Wouldn't even let him stay one night

11. The Dream
04:21
|
|||
|
I had a dream that a mountain was weeping with great wind-sighs
Down came a river of tears from a thousand night eyes
Victor was standing playing guitar in the cool night air
And the sound of the wind was Paul Robeson singing A Workers Prayer.
|
||||
12. |
||||
|
You will eat, bye and bye
In that glorious land above the sky,
Work and pray, live on hay
You'll get pie in the sky when you die (that's a lie!)

My will is easy to decide
For I have nothing to divide...

14. We Shall Be Free
03:34
|
|||
|
We shall be free, we shall be free
You can't hold back the sun or keep the wind from the trees
We shall be free, yes, we shall be free
No you can't crush a dream, you can't stop history
