Bill Dodds at The Bridge Folk Club – I Heard You Sing A Song (Written by Bill)

Bill Dodds at The Bridge Folk Club, 14 July 2025 I Heard You Sing A Song (Written by Bill) Bill was challenged to write a song about someone he admired, and he chose Pete Seeger. Pete died 12 years ago today on 27 January 2014 ____________________ Pete, I sang your song tonight, where have all the flowers gone What happened to those brave young men, who marched away to war How many came back home again or still lie in lonely graves Your songs tried to change their ways so they could wear flowers in their hair I heard you sing a song for freedom I heard you sing a song for peace I heard you sing a song for our troubled earth Now I’m singing this song for you Pete, I saw you marching by, with Martin Luther King Walking slowly hand in hand, singing we shall overcome You faced Jim Clark and all his bully boys, that day on Selma bridge Travelling to Montgomery so you could let freedom ring I heard you sing a song for freedom I heard you sing a song for peace I heard you sing a song for our troubled earth Now I’m singing this song for you You said, I’d rather put a song on someone’s lips than in their ears It takes singers to bring songs to life Make a song your own by singing it And be proud of the songs that you sing Pete, you stood on picket lines putting tunes to workers words Helping people fight for jobs, showing which side you were on Giving hope to everyone, with your songs and winning smile Pete, thanks for singing out and making this land yours and mine
