Goodbye, my comrades,
Goodbye, my north Plymouth,
Goodbye to the Boston harbor,
Goodbye, Sua**os Lane.
Sua**os Lane is just an alley
Up here in old north Plymouth.
You saw my fish cart
Roll here in Sua**os Lane.
They say I k**ed him,
Said I k**ed the payroll carrier,
Over there in South Braintree,
Thirty-five miles from Sua**os Lane.
My name is Lefevre Brini,
On the same day, Bart Vanzetti
Brought fish to the Cherry Court,
One block from Sua**os Lane.
My name is Joseph Rosen,
I am a woolen peddler,
I sold Vanzetti a roll of cloth,
That day in Sua**os Lane.
I'm Mrs. Alphonsine Brini,
Mr. Rosen and Bart Vanzetti
Showed me the cloth with big hole in it.
One block from Sua**os Lane.
My name is Melvin Corl,
I's paintin' my fishin' schooner.
Vanzetti talked to me an hour,
About a mile from Sua**os Lane.
How could I be in South Braintree,
k**in' men there in front of the fact'ry,
When all these friends and others saw me
Cartin' my fish in Sua**os Lane?
I tell you workin' people,
Fight hard for higher wages,
Fight to k** blackmarket prices,
This is why you take my life.
I tell you workin' people,
Fight hard for cleaner houses,
Fight hard for the wife and children,
That's why they took my life.
Sua**os Lane is just an alley
Up here in old north Plymouth.
You saw my fish cart
Roll here in Sua**os Lane.
