1
As we go marching marching in the beauty of the day
2
A brightened by the beauty that a sudden sun discloses
3
For the people here are singing bread and roses, bread and roses
4
As we go marching marching we battle too for men
5
For they are in this struggle and together we can win
6
Our lives shall not be sweated from birth until life closes
7
Hearts can starve as well as bodies give bread but give us roses
8
As we go marching marching unnumbered women dead
9
Go crying through our singing their ancient cry for bread
10
Small art and love and beauty their drudging spirits knew
11
Yes it is bread that we fight for but we fight for roses too
12
As we go marching marching we're standing proud and tall
13
The rising of the women means the rising of us all
14
No more the drudge and the idler ten that toil where one reposes
15
But a sharing of life's glories "“ bread and roses, bread and roses
