Hush love you're trembling
You know I have to go
You know our lot was cast by others
A long, long time ago
The other boys are waitin'
You know it's cold outside
Darlin' please don't cry
It's for freedom not my pride
You know they won't rest
Until they push us in the sea
Struggle is the essence of
A poor man's legacy
Some will be allowed to live
While some are bound to die
You know I'm bound to try
Because I'm able
You know they won't rest
Until they push us in the sea
Sorrow is a bitter gift,
From Freedom's legacy
Go and see the widow
Now William was a man
He died beneath the hand
Of tyranny's idea
You know they won't rest
Until they push us in the sea
Sorrow is a bitter gift
From Freedom's legacy
