There is Power in a Union

Lyrics

Would you have freedom from wage slavery
 Then join in the grand industrial band
 Would you from misery and hunger be free
 Come on, do your share, lend a hand
 There is power, there is power in a band of working folks
 When they stand
 Hand in hand
 That's a power, that's a power
 That must rule in every land
 One industrial union grand
 Would you have mansions of gold in the sky
 And live in a shack, way in the back
 Would you have wings up in heaven to fly
 And stay here with rags on your back?
 There is power, there is power in a band of working folks
 When they stand
 Hand in hand
 That's a power, that's a power
 That must rule in every land
 One industrial union grand
 If you've had enough of the "blood of the lamb"
 Then come join the grand industrial band
 If, for a change, you'd have eggs and ham
 Come on, do your share, lend a hand
 There is power, there is power in a band of working folks
 When they stand
 Hand in hand
 That's a power, that's a power
 That must rule in every land
 One industrial union grand
 If you like sluggers to beat on your heads
 Then don't organize, all unions despise
 If you want nothing before you are dead
 Shake hands with your boss and look wise
 There is power, there is power in a band of working folks
 When they stand
 Hand in hand
 That's a power, that's a power
 That must rule in every land
 One industrial union grand
 Come, all you workers, from every land
 Come join in the grand industrial band
 Then we our share of this earth shall demand
 Come on, do your share, lend a hand
 There is power, there is power in a band of working folks
 When they stand
 Hand in hand
 That's a power, that's a power
 That must rule in every land
 One industrial union grand
