farm worker's song - joe glazer lyrics

[spoken intro]
“workers of hispanic descent are one of the fastest*growing groups in the united states. in the northeast, there are many puerto ricans as well as hispanics from central and south america. thousands of cubans have settled in florida. in california, texas, and other western states, mexican*americans or chicanos work in the factories and the fields. chicano farm workers follow the crops, picking the fruits and the vegetables. this song describes thе famous march from delano, the grape capital, to sacramеnto, the california state capital in the late 1960s. the workers march; they sing; they tell their story. and they say in the song: mis derechos a pelear—i march because i’m fighting for my rights.”

[chorus]
desde delano voy
hasta sacramento
hasta sacramento
mis derechos a pelear

[verse 1]
¿qué yo he de decir?
¿qué yo estoy muy cansado?
¿qué el camino es largo
y no se ve el fin?

[chorus]
desde delano voy
hasta sacramento
hasta sacramento
mis derechos a pelear

[verse 2]
yo no vengo a cantar
porque mi voz sea buena
ni tampoco a llorar
mi mal estar
[bridge]
mis compañeros
amigos mios
oye éstos pasos
que todo el mundo lo sabrá

[chorus]
desde delano voy
hasta sacramento
hasta sacramento
mis derechos a pelear

[outro]
¡viva la huelga!
¡viva la causa!
¡viva!
