Billy Bragg - I Guess I Planted Lyrics

I guess I planted some long lonesome Seed of a song Way down inside me long ago And now I can’t remember when it was But it joined up with the rest of them and grows It’s such a little song it don’t compare With all your big ones you hear everywhere But when it dawns way in the back of your mind The big ones are made up of the little kind Union song. union battled. All added up. won us what we got now I can’t even start to look around me here Without hearing this song And seeing all of us first separated, Hurt, apart and afraid And hungry for the union And so we kept on Singing and working, fighting till we got it. And this is the big union song I guess I hear. We fought there at your place We fought there on your ship And I guess if you missed out on The fight for our union, You missed out on one awful big step Us people took.
