Who were the ones who fought for freedom? Who were the ones who gave their lives? Maybe they didn't have to lose much But don't forget their kids and wives
Chorus: Working class heroes They are the ones who helped to build this land Working class heroes They stay united always hand in hand Working class heroes With hearts of gold that always shine so bright Working class heroes They give you hope, will never leave you side
Is this the way to treat your heroes? Don't you have no respect at all? A government that never listens It seems it's riding for a fall
Chorus.
This ain't a country fit for heroes The government don't give a shit They're all so full of self importance Soon time will come that they'll admit We need to honour them, we need to honour them We need to show that we'll remember them
