about

The Tolpuddle Martyrs: a story with a lesson for the present.

lyrics

Was in Eighteen hundred and thirty four
That six men from Dorset fell foul of the law
For they swore an oath that together they'd stand
For a fair living wage for men working the land

Now Judge Baron John Williams, his hammer did fall
And those six men from Dorset were damned one and all
Transported for seven long years they would be
And he shipped them in bondage far over the sea

We will, we will, we will be free
If I stand up for you and you stand up for me
We can fly the flag for liberty
We will, we will, we will be free

Now the workers rose up and they wouldn't back down
And they took to the streets of our cities and towns
They marched and they rallied, demanding to see
Those six men from Dorset shipped home again free

We will, we will, we will be free
If I stand up for you and you stand up for me
We can fly the flag for liberty
We will, we will, we will be free

From the Tolpuddle Martyrs to everyone here
Don't cower before them a slave to your fear
Take heart from our history, and together we'll stand
Cos if six men from Dorset could, anyone can

We will, we will, we will be free
If I stand up for you and you stand up for me
We can fly the flag for liberty
We will, we will, we will be free

We will, we will, we will be free
If I stand up for you and you stand up for me
For justice and equality
We will, we will, we will be free
