OH YOU CAN’T SCARE ME _______________________________________________________ This song was written to the tune of Woody Guthrie's "Union Maid." Guthrie borrowed the melody from a popular song called Red Wing, also about a young woman, the lyrics of which begin: There once was an Indian maid, A shy little prairie maid, Who sang a lay, a love song gay, As on the plain she’d while away the day. The new verses for the Blair March were written by Flora Bernard, as found in the Solidarity Songbook created for the March. _______________________________________________________ Lyrics: Marchin' on the Mountain Oh you can't scare me I'm stickin' to the movement (or union) I'm stickin' to the movement, I'm stickin' to the movement Oh you can't scare me I'm sticking to the movement, Til we all breathe free. I'm talking to my neighbors (3x) I'm bringin' in my family. I'm marchin' on the Mountain. And we'll stand with our comrades there.
