Barbara Dane * Track #3 On I Hate the Capitalist System

Detroit Medley Lyrics

In the following medley we pay our respect to the Golden Rule
Them that's got the gold makes the rule

I worked 20 years at the factory
To buy me some bread and some meat
I'm looking for work and I find none
I wish I had something to eat

They gave me soup, soup
They gave me a bowl of (lousy) soup
Soup, soup
They gave me a bowl of soup

Go tell young Henry
Go tell young Henry
Go tell young Henry
The old Ford system's dead

The one he's been saving
The one he's been saving
The one he's been saving
Since Ford plant was a shed

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the making of the Ford
It is made under conditions that offend even the Lord
Amid a might hurry and ??????
Production rushes on!

Hurry hurry hurry up John
Hurry hurry hurry up John
Hurry hurry hurry up John
Production rushes on!

Be quick my mind to answer and be merciful my feet
Be 47 places every time my heart can beat
But the whip that drives me onward is my family must eat
Production rushes on!

Hurry hurry hurry up John
Hurry hurry hurry up John
Hurry hurry hurry up John
Production rushes on!
