about

A short biography of Pete Seeger, set to the tune of "She'll Be Comin' Round the Mountain"

lyrics

He sang “Coming Round the Mountain” to us all. (Thanks Pete)

He sang on/ so many picket lines! (Solidarity!)

The kicked him off the airwaves long ago (Shame, Shame)

He sang in many tongues while he was here (Guantanamero!)

He put Ecclesiastes to a tune (Turn, Turn, Turn!)

He taught We Shall Overcome to Dr. King (Someday!)

He helped clean up the Hudson with a sloop (Heave away!)

We can still sing all together ‘though he’s gone ((Sing along!)
