It's Been A Long, Long Story

It's been a long, long, long, long story

'bout the fight to make men free,

It's been a long, long, long, long story

About as long as a story ought to be

So hold your hats boys, hold the fort

I'm here to make a long story short

So it's time to sail in to the port

Time to make a long story short.

It's been...........

About the fight to make the union grow

It's been............

Story that's been told too slow.

*chorus*

It's been............

About the fight to ban the bomb

It's been..............

Should have been a long time gone.

*chorus*

It's been..........

About the fight to keep the hungry lands

It's been............

About as long as a hungry world can stand.

*chorus*
