The Closed Shop |
| Born a poor worker’s son |
| Taught to fight for all his rights |
| Life for him’s just begun |
| Union might his leading light. |
| It’s a shame and it’s a sin |
| They don’t know the mood they’re in Until they strike for what is right |
| Not what has been. |
| Shop floor, that’s where he’s at Back to back, bring out the rack |
| Squeeze them 'til they react |
| Wield the gun; |
| see how they run. |
| It’s a shame and it’s a sin |
| Until they strike for what is right |
| Not what has been. |
| All out of freedom, all out for more |
| Show them we mean it, tell them the score |
| Brother for brother, that’s what we’re for |
| Don’t give us reasons |
| Our reasons has gone out the door. |
| Born a poor worker’s son |
| Taught to fight for all his rights |
| Life for him’s just begun |
| Union might his leading light. |
| It’s a shame and it’s a sin |
| They don’t know the mood they’re in Until they strike for what is right |
| Not what has been. |
