Joe, I know how to hum the chorus, but I do not recall any more of the words.   I heard the song for the first time at the 1st Hudson River Revival that took place in Croton Point Park. Many of the Sloop Singers that year had been at the Seabrook, NH demonstrations, and it was also the year that Karen Silkwood made the news. I heard it sung at least 3 times during that festival & I think that Charlie King was one of the performers who did it. I heard it again about a month ago being sung by Tom Paxton. I believe it was on the Ron Olesko & Bill Hahn Traditions show on WFDU, where it was mentioned that Tom had a new CD out and that this song was on it. I wish I could transmit the tune to you over the net, but I do not read music and can not transcribe notes. I am one of these guys who does everything by ear.
