• There is Power in a Union

Would you have freedom from Wage slavery,
D G
Then join in the grand Industrial band;
C
Would you from mis'ry and hunger be free,
D G
Then come, do your share, like a man.

(Chorus)
G C G
There is power, there is power in a band of workingmen,
D G
When they stand hand in hand,
C G
That's a power, that's a power That must rule in every land-
D G
One Industrial Union Grand.

G C
Would you have mansions of gold in the sky,
D G
and live in a shack, way in the back?
C
Would you have wings up in heaven to fly,
D G
And starve here with rags on your back?

G C
If you've had 'nuff of the "blood of the lamb"
D G
Then join in the grand industrial band;
C
If, for a change, you would have eggs and ham,
D G
Then come, do your share, like a man.

G C
If you like sluggers to beat off your head,
D G
Then don't organize, all unions despise.
C
If you want nothing before you are dead,
D G
Shake hands with your boss and look Wise.

G C
Come, all ye workers, from every land,
D G
Come, join in the grand industrial band;
C
Then we our share of this earth shall demand.
D G
Come on! Do your share, like a man.
