Walking Down Death Row - Pete Seeger[00:00:01]

Walking down death row[00:00:06]

I sang for three men destined for the chair[00:00:10]

Walking down death row[00:00:17]

I sang of lives and loves in other years[00:00:21]

Walking down death row[00:00:28]

I sang of hopes that used to be[00:00:31]

Through the bars into each separate cell[00:00:36]

Yes I sang to one and two and three[00:00:39]

If you'd only stuck together you'd not be here[00:00:42]

If you could have loved each other's lives[00:00:47]

You'd not be sitting here[00:00:50]

And if only this you could believe[00:00:53]

You still might you might still be reprieved[00:00:58]

Walking down death row[00:01:11]

I turned a corner and found to my surprise[00:01:15]

There were women there as well[00:01:21]

And babies in their arms before my eyes[00:01:25]

Walking down death row[00:01:32]

I tried again to sing of hopes that used to be[00:01:35]

But the thought of that contraption down the hall[00:01:41]

Waiting for whole families one dozen two or three[00:01:45]

If you'd only stuck together you'd not be here[00:01:51]

If you coulda loved another's child as well[00:01:56]

You'd not have to stay here[00:02:00]

And if only this you could believe[00:02:04]

You still might you might still be reprieved[00:02:09]

Walking down death row[00:02:21]

I concentrated singing to the young[00:02:25]

I sang of hopes that flickered still[00:02:32]

I tried to mouth their many separate tongues[00:02:37]

Walking down death row[00:02:43]

I sang again of life and love that still could be[00:02:48]

Singing down death row[00:02:54]

To each separate human cell one billion two or three[00:03:00]

If you'd only stick together you'd not be here[00:03:06]

If you could love another's child[00:03:11]

If you could love another's life[00:03:14]

Like your own you'd not be here[00:03:17]

And if only this you could believe[00:03:21]

You still might you might still be reprieved[00:03:26]
