Peninsula | South Bay | Global Justice and Anti-Capitalism | Labor & WorkersSong for Father's Day as Sung on Palo Alto World Music Day
Many people requested the lyrics to this song and the Raging Grannies ran out of printed lyrics! Members of the Raging Grannies Action League, who wrote the song, were joined by ORWC and OSJ members in front of the Palo Alto Apple Store. Father's Day for Justice
tune: Good Night Irene What is this holiday? We celebrate It's Father's Day It's Father's Day Oh do you know the tale? The year was nineteen-oh-eight A mining accident Took lives of scores of fathers Many a tear was shed What is this holiday? We celebrate It's Father's Day It's Father's Day Oh do you know the tale? It was in West Viginie Where miners lost their lives The town cried out for justice Today we we join their cries What is this holiday? We celebrate It's Father's Day It's Father's Day Oh do you know the tale? Now workers need conditions THAT are clean and safe From Chinese towns like Shen-Zhen To cities in the States
