Lyrics or Keywords
Hold on, keep your hand on that plow. All the nations make a chain, Every link is freedom's name. Now the war is over and done, Keep the peace that we have won, Freedom's name is mighty sweet; Black and white are gonna meet; Many souls have fought and died so we could be here side by side.
