Unknown - Peoples Song Song Lyrics

The Peoples Song Song

Well, they handed him his orders in Party Headquarters
Saying," Pete, you're way behind time.
This is not '38, it is 1957
There's a change in the good old Party line."

Well, it's a long, long road from Greensleeves to Freiheit
And the way is tough and long;
But that grand old outfit they call People's Artists
Is on hand with those good old People's Songs!

Their material is corny, but their motives are the purest
And their spirit will never be broke;
As they go right on with their great noble crusade
Of teaching folk songs to the folk.

From an imperfect memory of the Bosses' Songbook; Anyone know the
rest? RG
