Hold the Line - Pete Seeger
Let me tell you the story of a line that was held

And many brave men
And women whose courage we know well

How we held the line at Peekskill
On that long September day
We will hold the line forever till
The people have their way

Hold the line

Hold the line

As we held the line at Peekskill
We will hold it everywhere

Hold the line

Hold the line

We will hold the line forever
Till there's freedom everywhere

There was music there was singing
People listened everywhere;

The people they were smiling

So happy to be there

While on the road behind us
The fascists waited there

Their curses could not drown
Out the music in the air

Hold the line

Hold the line

As we held the line at Peekskill
We will hold it everywhere

Hold the line

Hold the line

We will hold the line forever
Till there's freedom everywhere

The grounds were all surrounded
By a band of gallant men

Shoulder to shoulder

No fascist could get in

The music of the people was
Heard for miles around

Well guarded by the workers
Their courage made us proud

Hold the line

Hold the line

As we held the line at Peekskill
We will hold it everywhere
Hold the line

Hold the line

We will hold the line forever
Till there's freedom everywhere

When the music was all over

We started to go home

We did not know the trouble
And the pain that was to come

We go into our buses
And drove out through the gate

And saw the gangster police

Their faces filled with hate
Hold the line

Hold the line

As we held the line at Peekskill
We will hold it everywhere

Hold the line

Hold the line

We will hold the line forever
Till there's freedom everywhere

Then without any warning

The rocks began to come

The cops and troopers laughed to
See the damage that was done

They ran us through a gauntlet
To their everlasting shame

And the cowards there attacked us
Damnation to their name

Hold the line

Hold the line

As we held the line at Peekskill
We will hold it everywhere

Hold the line

Hold the line

We will hold the line forever
Till there's freedom everywhere

All across the nation the people heard the tale

And marveled at the concert
And knew we had not failed

We shed our blood at Peekskill

And suffered many a pain
But we beat back the fascists
And we'll beat them back again

Hold the line

Hold the line

As we held the line at Peekskill
We will hold it everywhere

Hold the line

Hold the line

We will hold the line forever
Till there's freedom everywhere
