Folk Singer, Folk Singer Sing
H. W. BRYCE
Folk Singer, Folk Singer sing,
Sing for the folks, do,
Sing with your heart, sing from your soul,
Sing even as you pay The Man’s toll.
Sing for the broken, sing with might,
Sing for the poor, sing up a storm,
Sing for the rich, sing to their core,
Sing for the beggars, sing for them there.
Sing for us all, Folk Singer sing,
Sing for us because we need love,
Sing for the peace dove, let your voice ring,
Sing for us now, Folk Singer sing.
The world’s in a mess, we need you to sing,
We need more songs, not more bullets to ring,
We need more doctors ’cause more people are ill,
We need more quiet, we need nerves to be still,
Sing Folk Singer sing, sing from the heart,
Sing us together, don’t let us part,
Teach us to sing , teach us the words,
Teach us to to be free, free like the birds.
Folk Singer, Folk Singer sing,
Sing for the folks, do,
Sing with your heart, sing from your soul,
Sing even as you pay The Man’s toll.
Sing Folk Singer sing, teach us harmony,
Teach us the parts, not love of the money,
Lead us Folk Singer to peace in the heart.
Let love of the singing never depart.
