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!"
