Subject: RE: Gospel Origin-Civil Rights & Labor Songs
Miner's Lifeguard, from Life is Like a Mountain Railroad, and then becoming John Brunner's H Bomb's Thunder - and there were other CND songs with simlar roots.

For example "Ban Ban Ban the bloody H-Bomb" from John Brown's Body - with the last line sometimes, after 3 repeats of the title line "and we won't have to march no more". But there were other verses, written by Alex Comfort - that was before he got into the Joy of Sex and made a packet.
