Pete Seeger and his Sweater -- Seventy Miles

LYRICS:

Seventy miles of wind and spray
Seventy miles of water
Seventy miles of open bay
It's a garbage dump

What's that stinky creek out there
Out behind the slum's back stair
Sludgy puddle, sad and gray
Why man, that's San Francisco Bay

Seventy miles of wind and spray
Seventy miles of water
Seventy miles of open bay
It's a garbage dump

Joe Ortega and the Spanish crew
Sailed across the ocean blue
Came into this mighty bay
Stood on the decks and cried, "Ole!"

Seventy miles of wind and spray
Seventy miles of water
Seventy miles of open bay
It's a garbage dump

Fill it here, fill it there
Docks and tidelands disappear
Shaky houses on the quakey ground
The builder, he's Las Vegas bound

Seventy miles...

"Dump the garbage in the Bay?"
City Hall says, "Sure, you may
When cries of anguish fill the air
We'll be off on the Riviere"

Seventy miles of wind and spray
Seventy miles of water
Seventy miles of open bay
It's a garbage dump

Malvina Reynolds and Ramblin' Jack Elliott on Rainbow Quest with Pete Seeger (No. 6
