Almanac Singers - Side by Side Lyrics




There stood a house upon the hill
Hullabaloo belay
Hullabaloo belah belay
And in this house eight men did dwell
Hullabaloo belay
One stood up and shook his fist
""I'll get stronger than the rest""

He first began to cheat and steal
He then set fire to their fields

They turned their heads and let him be
Then he upped and murdered three

It made no difference where he stood
He left a footprint red with blood

He murdered three and wanted more
He turned upon the other four

But when this murder he did try
He found them standing side by side

Side by side they fought that day
They left his bones to rot away

This is the ending of my song
One was weak but four were strong
