The Death of Harry Simms - Pete Seeger

Come and listen to my story

Come and listen to my song

 

I will tell you of a hero

 

Who's now dead and gone

 

I will tell you of a young boy

 

Whose age was nineteen

 

He was the bravest union man

That I have ever seen

 

Harry Simms was a palomine

We labored side by side

 

Expecting to be shot on sight

Or taken for a ride

 

By them dirty cold operator gun thugs

 

That roamed from town to town

 

A-shooting down the union men

Where e'er they may be found

 

Harry Simms was walkin' down the track

One bright sun-shiney day

 

He was a youth of courage

 

His step was light and gay

 

He did not know the gun

Thugs was hiding on the way

 

To kill our brave young comrade

This bright sun-shiney day

 

Harry Simms was killed on Brush Creek

In nineteen thirty-two

 

He organized the miners into the N M U

 

He gave his life in struggle

 

That was all that he could do

 

 

He died for the union also for me and you
