Wilco - I Guess I Planted lyrics

rate me

I guess I planted some long lonesome seed of a song

Way down inside me long ago

And now I can't remember when it was

But it joined up with the rest of them and grows

It's such a little song it don't compare

With all your big ones you hear everywhere

But when it dawns way in the back of your mind

The big ones are made up of the little kind

Union song, union battled

All added up won us all what we got now

Union song, union battled

All added up won us all what we got now

I can't even start to look around me here

Without hearing this song

And seeing all of us first separated

Hurt apart and afraid

Hungry for the union

And so we kept on

Singing and working, fighting till we got it

And this is the big union song I guess I hear

Union song, union battled

All added up won us all what we got now

Union song, union battled

All added up won us all what we got now

We fought there at your place

We fought there on your ship

And I guess if you missed out on

The fight for our union

You missed out on one awful big step

Us people took

Union song, union battled

All added up won us all what we got now

Union song, union battled

All added up won us all what we got now

Union song, union battled

All added up won us all what we got now

Union song, union battled

All added up won us all what we got now
