Lyrics

If we don't have our dreams
What do we live for?
If we don't have our dreams
What did James Connolly die for?
Look up the sky is burning
With blood the workers shed
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
Bread and roses
Roses and bread
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
He was born to organise
That's what Jack Jones lived for
Being a union man
That's what Joe Hill was killed for
Look up the sky is burning
With blood the workers shed
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
Bread and roses
Roses and bread
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
With dreams in solid steel
That's what Mandela lived for
But dreaming of what might be
That's what Allende died for
Look up the sky is burning
With blood the workers shed
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
Bread and roses
Roses and bread
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
Let's dream that dream of dreams
Of life without sorrow
And maybe our dreams
Will build a new tomorrow
Look up the sky is burning
With blood the workers shed
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
Bread and roses
Roses and bread
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
Bread and roses
Roses and bread
We'll carry on the battle
For roses and bread
