GET ROLL

By JOHN WEIR

Paul Bunyan was a lumberjack, a giant logging man,

Paul Bunyan was a crackerjack with magic in his hand,
" With Babe, his fabulous Blue Ox, he flattened out the plains, :
Then picking up the scattered rocks that studded the terrain

He piled the Rocky Mountains up and capped them all with snow—

_ He pulled down clouds to do that job—-oh wasn’t that some show!

did he do it for?

fs

He scooped the earth for the Great Lakes to make a water hole,
Then with his little finger traced where rivers had to flow,
He bent a river just a bit and made Niag'ra Falls,
Newfoundland then he went and set amid the ocean's squalls —
Paul Bunyan was a mighty man, he was the first Canuck,
‘He made it all with his own hands, no matter where you look!

X * *

Heigh ho! What did he do it for?

Paul Bunyan didn’t do it for the wealthy or the banks,
Paul Bunyan didn’t do it for the money-grabbing Yanks,
Paul Bunyan didn’t do it for the wicked or the slv,
He did it for the people — for Canucks like you and I!

* **

Heigh ho! That's what he did it for!
* * *

Paul Bunyan was a logging man, a chopper down of trees —

His axe flashed in the morning sun, his beard flowed in the breeze.

He was the best dam’ workingman this country ever saw,

At every trade he tried his hand, was master of them all:

He built the cities big and proud and paved the streets and roads,

The western prairies then he ploughed — and grain grew up like gold!

Heigh ho! What did he do it for?

He laid the rails from east to west — and then he ran the train
He sailed upon the ocean's crest from China to Ukraine,

He built the mills and the machines and made the goods to flow, ,
Into the earth he dug down deep and brought up oil and coal,

P aul Bunyan picked an atom up —.a frightful mystery —

And cracked it like a hazelnut! aun turn to work,” said he.

Paul Bunyan didn’t do it for the wealthy or the banks,
Paul Bunyan didn’t do it for the money-grabbing Yanks,
Paul Bunyan didn’t do it for the grafter or the drone,

Paul Bunyan is the people — and we rise fo claim our own!

Heigh ho! That's what we're fighting for!

PAUL: BUNYAN IS THE PEOPLE!

E, the, people, will decide our own destiny. United, our strength is equal to that of the legendary
Paul Bunyan. No task is too great for us. no obstacle insurmountable. Our might is invincible,
once we are organized and work together to reach our objective — a socialist Canada.

The Pacific Tribune plays its modest role in the mighty struggles of the people. Every movement,
to be effective, needs a public voice. The Pacific Tribune is the voice of B.C.’s working class. It helps
to unite all progressive forces, organizes them and leads them into battle.

The Pacific Tribune must be maintained; it must be built and strengthened until its militant voice
reaches the ears of the workers in every city, town and village in British Columbia. Will YOU do YOUR
part by rushing in a donation to the PT fighting fund today? :
