We Shall Not Be Moved Lyrics


We shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
Just like a tree that's standing by the water
We shall not be movedWe shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
The union is behind us,
We shall not be movedWe shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
We're fighting for our freedom,
We shall not be movedWe shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
We're fighting for our children,
We shall not be movedWe shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
We'll building a mighty union,
We shall not be movedWe shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
Black and white together,

We shall not be movedWe shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
Young and old together,
We shall not be moved

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Almanac Singers were a group of folk musicians who achieved brief popularity in the early 1940s. Members Millard Lampell, Lee Hays, Pete Seeger, and Woody Guthrie began playing together informally after Seeger and Hays had been playing at left-wing political functions for a time. Mainstream national success began after the American Youth Congress meeting in Washington D.C. in February of 1941. Others who sang with the group at various times included Sis Cunningham, (John) Peter Hawes and his brother (Baldwin) Butch Hawes, Bess Lomax Hawes (wife of Butch), Cisco Houston, and Arthur Stern.
