bread and roses - joan baez lyrics
as we go marching, marching, in the beauty of the day
a million darkened kitchens, a thousand mill lofts gray
are touched with all the radiance that a sudden sun discloses
for the people hear us singing, bread and roses, bread and roses
as we come marching, marching, we battle too, for men
for they are women’s children and we mother them again
our days shall not be sweated from birth until life closes
hearts starve as well as bodies, give us bread, but give us roses
as we come marching, marching, un-numbered women dead
go crying through our singing their ancient call for bread
small art and love and beauty their trudging spirits knew
yes, it is bread we. fight for, but we fight for roses, too
as we go marching, marching, we bring the greater days
the rising of the women means the rising of the race
no more the drudge and idler, ten that toil where one reposes
but a sharing of life’s glories, bread and roses, bread and roses
