(Anne Feeney)
Was it Cesar Chavez or Rosa Parks that day?
Some say Dr. King or Ghandi
Set them on their way
No matter who your mentors are
It's pretty plain to see
That if you've been to jail for justice
You're in good company
Have you been to jail for justice?
I want to shake your hand
'Cause sitting in and laying down
Are ways to take a stand
Have you sung a song for freedom
Or marched that picket line?
Have you been to jail for justice?
Then you're a friend of mine
You law abiding citizens
Come listen to this song
Laws are made by people
And people can be wrongOnce unions were against the law
But slavery was fine
Women were denied the vote
While children worked the mine
The more you study history
The less you can deny it
A rotten law stays on the books
'til folks with guts defy it!
Have you been to jail for justice?
I want to shake your hand
'Cause sitting in and laying down
Are ways to take a stand
Have you sung a song for freedom
Or marched that picket line?
Have you been to jail for justice?
Then you're a friend of mine
Well the law is supposed to serve us
And so are the police
When the system fails
It's up to us to speak our piece
We must be ever vigilant
For justice to prevail
So get courage from your convictions
Let 'em haul you off to jail!
Have you been to jail for justice?
I want to shake your hand
'Cause sitting in and laying down
Are ways to take a stand
Have you sung a song for freedom
Or marched that picket line?
Have you been to jail for justice?
Then you're a friend of mine
Have you been to jail for justice
Have you been to jail for justice
Have you been to jail for justice
Then you're a friend of mine
Der musikalische text HAVE YOU BEEN TO JAIL FOR JUSTICE? von PETER, PAUL & MARY ist auch in dem Album vorhanden In these times (2004)
Peter, Paul and Mary è un trio folk americano formatosi nel 1960 a New York City. Composto da Peter Yarrow, Paul Stookey e Mary Travers, il gruppo ha raggiunto la fama negli anni '60 grazie alla loro musica folk-rock, spesso caratterizzata da testi politici e sociali. Tra i loro successi più noti figurano "If I Had a Hammer", "Blowin' in the Wind" (cover di Bob Dylan) e "Leaving on a Jet Plane". Peter, Paul and Mary hanno partecipato a numerosi eventi per la causa civile americana, come il March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom del 1963. Il loro stile musicale ha influenzato generazioni di artisti folk e rock, contribuendo a diffondere la musica folk negli Stati Uniti e nel mondo. Dopo una pausa negli anni '70, il gruppo si è riunito in diverse occasioni per concerti e registrazioni fino al 2018, quando Mary Travers è scomparsa.
