Joe Offer	Lyr Req: Gender-neut lyrics for One Man's Hands? (24)	ADD Version One Man's Hands (Comfort/Seeger)	15 Jan 17
I think this is as far back as we can go. It's from Sing Out! Magazine, Vol. 12, No. 2, April-May 1962. Anybody know of an earlier printing of this song? ONE MAN'S HANDS (Words by Alex Comfort, Music by Pete Seeger) One man's hands can't break a prison down, Two men's hands can't break a prison down, But if two and two and fifty make a million, We'll see that day come 'round, We'll see that day come 'round. One man's voice can't shout to make them hear, Two men's voices can't shout to make them hear, But if two and two and fifty make a million, We'll see that day come 'round, We'll see that day come 'round. One man's strength can't ban the atom bomb… One man's strength can't break the color bar… One man's strength can't make the union roll… One man's feet can't walk around the land… One man's eyes can't see the way ahead… (and so on, for as many good causes as time permits) ©1962 by Stormking Music, Inc.
