Hold The Line Video (MV)

Let me tell you the story of
A line that was held
And many brave men and women
Whose courage we know well
How we held the line at Peekskill
On that long September day!
We will hold the line forever till
The people have their way

Hold the line! Hold the line!
As we held the line at Peekskill
We will hold it everywhere hold the line!
Hold the line! We will hold the line forever
Till there's freedom ev'rywhere
There was music, there was singing
People listened everywhere
The people they were smiling
So happy to be there -
While on the road behind us
The fascists waited there
Their curses could not drown out
The music in the air

The grounds were all surrounded by
A band of gallant men
Shoulder to shoulder, no fascist could get in
The music of the people was
Heard for miles around
Well guarded by the workers
Their courage made us proud

When the music was all over
We started to go home
We did not know the trouble and
The pain that was to come
We go into our buses and
Drove out through the gate
And saw the gangster police
Their faces filled with hate

Then without any warning the
Rocks began to come
The cops and troopers laughed to see
The damage that was done
They ran us through a gauntlet
To their everlasting shame
And the cowards there attacked us
Damnation to their name

All across the nation the
People heard the tale
And marveled at the concert
And knew we had not failed
We shed our blood at Peekskill
And suffered many a pain
But we beat back the fascists and
We'll beat them back again!
