Harry Simms |
Come and listen to my story, come and listen to my song |
I will tell you of a hero, who’s now dead and gone |
I will tell you of a young boy, whose age was nineteen |
He was the bravest union man, that I have ever seen |
Harry Simms was a palomine, we labored side by side |
Expecting to be shot on sight, or taken for a ride |
By them dirty cold operator gun thugs, that roamed from town to town |
A-shooting down the union men, where e’er they may be found |
Harry Simms was walkin' down the track, one bright sun-shiney day |
He was a youth of courage, his step was light and gay |
He did not know the gun thugs was hiding on the way |
To kill our brave young comrade this bright sun-shiney day |
Harry Simms was killed on Brush Creek, in nineteen thirty-two |
He organized the miners, into the N.M.U |
He gave his life in struggle, that was all that he could do |
He died for the union, also for me and you |
