Solidarity |
We stand in solidarity |
We’re weary but we’re ready … |
I grew up in the suburbs |
I sing now for my supper |
I don’t live the life of Riley |
But it ain’t that far removed |
A stranger to the struggle |
I have never walked a mile |
In your shoes |
I grew up in the Eastend |
I should have joined the union |
Building cars in Dagenham |
Instead I packed my bags |
Landed in America |
Settled down in Canada |
I fly no country’s flag |
Solidarity |
We stand in solidarity |
We’re weary but we’re ready |
Pushing boulders up the hill |
Let them have their towers |
The next blue sky is ours |
We’re in this fight to win |
And we will |
I worked in New Orleans |
In 1966 |
Cleaning up the damage |
After the hurricane |
Rode the bus across the city |
From Saint Bernard to Pontchartrain |
I’ve been to California |
The new one and the old one |
You find your people everywhere |
They open up your mind |
They may be left of center but |
They won’t be left behind |
Solidarity |
We stand in solidarity |
We’re weary but we’re ready |
Pushing boulders up the hill |
Let them have their towers |
The next blue sky is ours |
We’re in this fight to win |
And we will |
Solidarity |
We stand in solidarity |
We’re weary but we’re ready |
Pushing boulders up the hill … and we will |
