Notes

This is the original political wake up song. It really is the song for all times, still relevant so many years after Bob Dylan wrote it.

Come Senators, Congressmen please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt will be he that is stalled
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'.

This song has been performed by many of the great folk artists. My favorite performance (I don't prefer Dylan's voice) is Peter, Paul, and Mary on a live album they did. Mary's harmonies are just fantastic.
