Joan Baez lyrics Juan De La Cruz lyrics Once again the workers rise with the lark There's a mass going on in the people's park Silent and determined they set to embark On a three day fast and a five mile march For a man's been shot on the picket line Sixty years of strength was young for dying His family is here with eyes of red His wife steps down with feet of lead And the sun shines down upon The old man whose days are done For a martyr has been taken He is old Juan de la Cruz And a century of women pray At the casket before them laid And the Virgin of Guadalupe Watches over de la Cruz As the heat poured down on the field below The lead came a-flying from the vineyard row De la Cruz and his wife never ducked or ran Union folks since the fight began People scattered out laying low to the ground And slowly arose as the dust died down Birds fluttered soft in his sweet wife's breast As the bullets sank deep in the old man's chest The tears fell as Cesar read The eulogy for the dead And the Bishop broke the people's bread Over old Juan de la Cruz In the pitch of night a deal was made The deck's oldest card was played And the devil watched someone get paid For the death of de la Cruz Thirty years ago in the same damn spot The people who ordered the workers shot Fought as the poor for the same damn right Of their children to sleep well fed at night Oh Children of Brotherhood how you've grown But the seeds of hate were early sown I see that your souls have long since flown To the river of greed where angels moan Midst flowered veils and weathered graves And flags where the great black eagle waves Nosotros Venceremos plays For old Juan de la Cruz There's work today that must be done Pray for the man who held the gun And with sightless eyes shot down the one Called old Juan de la Cruz The rest of our story now soft and clear How half our daily bread appears Picked through the summer by young and old Whose earnings must last through the winter's cold By children who have stood with their backs bent down To scrape the roots from the grower's ground And mothers who have wept the night away For a child born dead on a rainy day Well it's true that blessed are the poor Through an iron mist - I can't be sure - It looks like I see heaven's door Swinging wide for de la Cruz The nuns, the priests and the workers sing Through a valley of blood their voices ring Hallelujah, he is risen, and thank you, Lord For old Juan de la Cruz Hallelujah, he is risen, and thank you, Lord For old Juan de la Cruz Other Joan Baez lyrics: A Stranger In My Place lyrics Imagine lyrics In The Quiet Morning lyrics Love Song To A Stranger lyrics Myths lyrics Prison Trilogy lyrics Rainbow Road lyrics Song Of Bangladesh lyrics The Partisan (la Complainte Du Partisan) lyrics To Bobby lyrics Tumbleweed lyrics Weary Mothers (people's Union #1) lyrics The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down lyrics A Heartfelt Line Or Two lyrics A Song For David lyrics A Young Gypsy lyrics All The Weary Mothers Of The Earth lyrics Blessed Are... lyrics Cambodia lyrics Caruso lyrics Children And All That Jazz lyrics Children Of The 80's lyrics China lyrics Coconuts lyrics Diamonds And Rust lyrics Don't Blame My Mother lyrics Don't Think Twice, It's All Right lyrics Edge Of Glory lyrics Farewell Angelina lyrics For Sasha lyrics Gossamer lyrics Fifteen Months lyrics Gabriel And Me lyrics Gracias A La Vida lyrics Gulf Wind lyrics Happy Birthday, Leonid Brezhnev lyrics Here's To You lyrics Honest Lullaby lyrics I'm With You lyrics In The Morning Light lyrics Isaac And Abraham lyrics James And The Gang lyrics Kingdom Of Childhood lyrics Lady Di And I lyrics Last, Lonely And Wretched lyrics Lily lyrics Love Is Just A Four Letter Word lyrics Lucifer's Eyes lyrics Marie Flore lyrics Love Song To A Stranger 1 lyrics Love Song To A Stranger 2 lyrics Luba The Baroness lyrics Marriot U.s.a. lyrics Michael lyrics Miracles lyrics Moscow On Hollywood Boulevard lyrics North lyrics Oh, Brother lyrics Only Heaven Knows lyrics Outside The Nashville City Limits lyrics Play Me Backwards lyrics Recently lyrics Rider, Pass By lyrics Saigon Bridge lyrics Seabirds lyrics Sgt.
