One Woman and a Shovel - Carrie Newcomer
Martha walked right down to the dam
I hoe and a shovel in either hand
She was bound to dig for every woman and man
And child that lay sick with fever
The government men said"Be our favorite sons
Be a place of worth some where and someone
If you drown this valley the canal boats will come"
So they drowned their lovely valley
But the waters grew black and the sickness came
They hung their heads in grief and shame
Martha said"We've only ourselves to blame"
And took up a shovel and hoe Good Lord
Took up a shovel and hoe
When it's time to say enough and set things right
The whole world is waist deep in trouble
Never doubt or question the power of love
Or one woman with a shovel
Along came Elizabeth Sarah and Rose
Eva Clara and Ruth
They came with picks and shovels
And hoes and armed with a righteous truth
Join by Calvin Eli and Scott
Timothy David and Paul
And together before sun came up
They tore down the cursed wall
Yes yes
They tore down the cursed wall
When it's time to say enough and set things right
The whole world is waist deep in trouble
Never doubt or question the power of love
Or one woman with a shovel
The lake finally bled it's bad blood south
And they'd saved that ravaged land
Not a single soul jury or judge
Think to fine or jail them
Think to fine or jail them
Martha walked right down to the dam
Hoe and a shovel in either hand
She was bound to dig for every woman and man
Child who lay sick with fever
When it's time to say enough and set things right
The whole world is waist deep in trouble
Never doubt or question the power of love
Or one woman with a shovel
Never doubt or question the power of love
Or one woman with a shovel
