It's A Long Haul
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
One day, one day (one day, one day),
I was walking along (I was walking along),
And I spied a little child (I spied a little child),
Just a-singing a song (just a-singing a song)
About haulin' together (about haulin' together),
Keepin' in time (keepin' in time).
Hauling on a halyard (hauling on a halyard),
Making up a rhyme (making up a rhyme).
It's a long haul (it's a long haul)
It's a high haul (it's a high haul)
It's a job for the many (it's a job for the many)
Not just for the few (not just for the few)
It's a job for everybody (it's a job for everybody)
That's me and you (that's me and you)
It's a long haul (it's a long haul)
It's a high haul (it's a high haul)
It's a hard haul (it's a hard haul).
