Well, the guns of war have roared And the bombs and shells have fallen The war clouds they rumbled as they rolled. I was a soldier in the fight And we fought till we won; My uniform's my dirty overalls.
This piece of land that I stand on Is my battlefield and home; My plow and my hoe is my gun. Clothes don't make no difference at all We are workers and fighters all; My uniform's my dirty overalls.
Well, I'll give you my sweat I'll give you my blood And I'll give you your bread and your wine. Before I'd be any man's slave, I would rot down in my grave. And you can lay me down in my dirty overalls.
Well, we settled here to stay and I'll stick here all my days; I'll keep marchin' in my dirty overalls.
