The Death of Harry Simms - Pete Seeger
Come and listen to my story
Come and listen to my song
I will tell you of a hero
Who's now dead and gone
I will tell you of a young boy
Whose age was nineteen
He was the bravest union man
That I have ever seen
Harry Simms was a palomine
We labored side by side
Expecting to be shot on sight
Or taken for a ride
By them dirty cold operator gun thugs
That roamed from town to town
A-shooting down the union men
Where e'er they may be found
Harry Simms was walkin' down the track
One bright sun-shiney day
He was a youth of courage
His step was light and gay
He did not know the gun
Thugs was hiding on the way
To kill our brave young comrade
This bright sun-shiney day
Harry Simms was killed on Brush Creek
In nineteen thirty-two
He organized the miners into the N M U
He gave his life in struggle
That was all that he could do
He died for the union also for me and you
