They were old when I was young |
| [00:09.29] |
Now they're all but passed away |
| [00:13.08] |
Now it's just a second hand |
| [00:16.56] |
Memory of the day |
| [00:19.31] |
When from all around the world |
| [00:23.00] |
They sailed off to Spain |
| [00:26.95] |
To fight against the fascists |
| [00:29.60] |
Where so many men were slain |
| [00:33.20] |
Who will recall the days |
| [00:36.50] |
When they all stood side by side |
| [00:40.00] |
Now that the last Lincoln Veteran died |
| [00:46.80] |
Beside Martin Luther King |
| [00:50.00] |
Or in a Veterans Parade |
| [00:53.80] |
You could see the men who made the journey |
| [00:57.00] |
To join the Fifteenth Brigade |
| [01:00.91] |
When men of many nations |
| [01:03.90] |
Of most every creed and hue |
| [01:08.19] |
Catholics and Protestants |
| [01:11.71] |
Atheists and Jews |
| [01:14.82] |
Joined together in the trenches |
| [01:18.22] |
To turn back the fascist tide |
| [01:21.75] |
Now that the last Lincoln Veteran died |
| [01:29.10] |
The working class of many nations |
| [01:32.39] |
Joined in a desperate bid |
| [01:35.80] |
With what weapons they could find |
| [01:39.28] |
They fought to save Madrid |
| [01:43.00] |
From Brussels and Berlin |
| [01:46.29] |
Galway and London town |
| [01:49.80] |
Who will recall the Brigadistas |
| [01:53.20] |
Who tried to take the fascists down |
| [01:56.70] |
There beside the Spanish people |
| [02:00.20] |
Even the figs and olives cried |
| [02:03.80] |
Now that the last Lincoln Veteran died |
| [02:52.70] |
The Republic had the people |
| [02:55.50] |
But the fascists had the tanks |
| [02:59.30] |
But Il Duce and Der Fuhrer |
| [03:02.41] |
Deserve only some of Franco's thanks |
| [03:06.57] |
'Cause the fuel to move the armor |
| [03:09.62] |
Came from the USA |
| [03:12.92] |
And the men that they gunned down |
| [03:16.36] |
Were from New York and Frisco Bay |
| [03:19.95] |
Uncle Sam said he was neutral |
| [03:23.61] |
Who will remember how he lied |
| [03:26.90] |
Now that the last Lincoln Veteran died |
| [03:34.42] |
They say people get conservative |
| [03:38.19] |
The older that they age |
| [03:41.61] |
They say that being radical |
| [03:45.18] |
Is just a youthful faith |
| [03:48.09] |
But the finest communist I've known |
| [03:52.70] |
lived to 95 |
| [03:55.73] |
And he spent his whole life striving |
| [03:59.16] |
For humanity to thrive |
| [04:02.75] |
To forget these fallen heroes |
| [04:06.00] |
Is something I cannot abide |
| [04:09.61] |
Now that the last Lincoln Veteran died |
| [04:16.62] |
Now that the last Lincoln Veteran died |
| [04:27.00] |
There's a valley in Spain called Jarama |
| [04:33.60] |
It's a place that we all know so well |
| [04:40.55] |
It was there that we gave of our manhood |
| [04:47.90] |
Where so many of our brave comrades fell |
