Peoples Song Song

Well, they handed him his orders in Party Headquarters
Saying," Pete, you're way behind time.
This is not '38, it is 1957
There's a change in the good old Party line."

Well, it's a long, long road from Greensleeves to Freiheit
And the way is tough and long;
But that grand old outfit they call People's Artists
Is on hand with those good old People's Songs!

Their hearts are pure, their material is corny
And their spirit will never be broke;
As they go right on with their great noble crusade
Of teaching folk songs to the folk.
