Thank Ya, Pete

Let me tell you a story about out friend, Pete Seeger
was a prophet and a poet, agitator and a teacher
It was a good life
It was a mighty good life
Singing songs for peace and for civil rights
Still hear his voice every day and night
It was a good life
It was a mighty good life

Folk music from The Weavers played in every town
Even Joe McCarthy couldn’t shut him down
It was a good life
It was a mighty good life
Hit the road with Woody for the union man
Gave voice to the cry against Vietnam
It was a good life
It was a mighty good life

Sang for justice, love and for wars to end
Sailed the Hudson till it was clean again
It was a good life
It was a mighty good life
Thank you, Lord, for good Pete Seeger
A dreamer and believer, a healer and a preacher
His was a good life
It was a mighty good life
