I still know ALL the words to "The Preacher and the Slave" and "I Dreamed I Saw Joe Hill Last Night".
Not that I believe one doggone word those old Commies said . . . but as Tom Lehrer said, "they may have won all the battles . . . but we had all the good songs!"

Now that is another VERY old name.
I can still get about 1/4 quarter of the way through "The Elements."

In that wonderful land above the sky.
Work and pray, live on hay.
You'll get pie in the sky when you die.
