Pete Seeger Vietnam War protest song - the title "Uncle Ho" refered to the North Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Minh. Released on the 1971 album "Rainbow Race" (Columbia Records # C 30739).

"He educated all the people

He demonstrated to the world

If a man will stand for his own land

He's got the strength of ten

And if we'd only learn the lesson

It could even be a blessin'

He and me might disagree

But we needn't go to shooting again

And if soldier boys in every land say

"Hell no, we won't go," ("what did you say")

"Hell no, we won't go," ("say it again!")

"Hell no, we won't go!"

I'll have to say in my own way

The only way I know

That we learned power to the people

And the power to know

From Teacher Uncle Ho!"

Interesting song, showing how Seeger tried to educate the American people, against the tide of the simplistic anti-communist propaganda.
