lyrics

Goodbye, my comrades
Goodbye, my north Plymouth
Goodbye to the Boston harbor
Goodbye, Suassos Lane
Suassos Lane is just an alley
Up here in old north Plymouth
You saw my fish cart
Roll here in Suassos Lane
They say I killed him
Said I killed the payroll carrier
Over there in South Braintree
Thirty-five miles from Suassos Lane

My name is Lefevre Brini
On the same day, Bart Vanzetti
Brought fish to the Cherry Court
One block from Suassos Lane

My name is Joseph Rosen
I am a woolen peddler
I sold Vanzetti a roll of cloth
That day in Suassos Lane

I'm Mrs. Alphonsine Brini
Mr. Rosen and Bart Vanzetti
Showed me the cloth with big hole in it
One block from Suassos Lane

My name is Melvin Corl
I's paintin' my fishin' schooner
Vanzetti talked to me an hour
About a mile from Suassos Lane

How could I be in South Braintree
Killin' men there in front of the fact'ry
When all these friends and others saw me
Cartin' my fish in Suassos Lane?

I tell you workin' people
Fight hard for higher wages
Fight to kill blackmarket prices
This is why you take my life

I tell you workin' people
Fight hard for cleaner houses
Fight hard for the wife and children
That's why they took my life

Suassos Lane is just an alley
Up here in old north Plymouth
You saw my fish cart
Roll here in Suassos Lane
