Pete Seeger (1919 – 2014)

"We Shall Not Be Moved" : Recorded live in 1980.






We shall not, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's planted by the water
We shall not be moved

We're young and old together, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's planted by the water
We shall not be moved

CHORUS

We're women and men together, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's planted by the water
We shall not be moved

CHORUS

Here's the city and country together, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's standing by the water
We shall not be moved

We're black and white together, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's standing by the water
We shall not be moved

Yes, straight and gay together, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's planted by the water
We shall not be moved

Well, it's no nukes is good nukes, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's planted by the water
We shall not be move


Split wood not atoms, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's planted by the water
We shall not be moved


We shall not, we shall not be moved, (2x)
Just like a tree that's planted by the water
We shall not be moved


Traditional American folk song with new lyrics by Seeger.
