This is a song about the union, friends How they fucked you over and the way they bends The rules to suit a special few And you gets pooched every time the do
You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together
Once upon a time the idea was good If only they'd a done what they said they would It ain't no better, they's makin' it worse The labor movement's got the mafia curse
You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together
Don't be no fool, don't be no dope Common sense is your only hope When the union tells you it's time to strike Tell the motherfucker to take a hike
You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together You know we gotta stick together
