Suassos Lane |
| Goodbye, my comrades |
| Goodbye, my north Plymouth |
| Goodbye to the Boston harbor |
| Goodbye, Suassos Lane |
| Suassos Lane is just an alley |
| Up here in old north Plymouth |
| You saw my fish cart |
| Roll here in Suassos Lane |
| They say I killed him |
| Said I killed the payroll carrier |
| Over there in South Braintree |
| Thirty-five miles from Suassos Lane |
| My name is Lefevre Brini |
| On the same day, Bart Vanzetti |
| Brought fish to the Cherry Court |
| One block from Suassos Lane |
| My name is Joseph Rosen |
| I am a woolen peddler |
| I sold Vanzetti a roll of cloth |
| That day in Suassos Lane |
| I’m Mrs. Alphonsine Brini |
| Mr. Rosen and Bart Vanzetti |
| Showed me the cloth with big hole in it |
| One block from Suassos Lane |
| My name is Melvin Corl |
| I’s paintin' my fishin' schooner |
| Vanzetti talked to me an hour |
| About a mile from Suassos Lane |
| How could I be in South Braintree |
| Killin' men there in front of the fact’ry |
| When all these friends and others saw me |
| Cartin' my fish in Suassos Lane? |
| I tell you workin' people |
| Fight hard for higher wages |
| Fight to kill blackmarket prices |
| This is why you take my life |
| I tell you workin' people |
| Fight hard for cleaner houses |
| Fight hard for the wife and children |
| That’s why they took my life |
| Suassos Lane is just an alley |
| Up here in old north Plymouth |
| You saw my fish cart |
| Roll here in Suassos Lane |
