Union Maid |
There once was a union maid, she never was afraid |
Of goons and ginks and company finks and the deputy sheriffs who made the raid |
She went to the union hall when a meeting it was called |
And when the Legion boys come 'round |
She always stood her ground |
Oh, you can’t scare me, I’m sticking to the union |
I’m sticking to the union, I’m sticking to the union |
Oh, you can’t scare me, I’m sticking to the union |
I’m sticking to the union 'til the day I die |
This union maid was wise to the tricks of company spies |
She couldn’t be fooled by a company stool, she’d always organize the guys |
She always got her way when she struck for better pay |
She’d show her card to the National Guard |
And this is what she’d say: |
You gals who want to be free, just take a tip from me; |
Get you a man who’s a union man and join the ladies' auxiliary |
Married life ain’t hard when you got a union card |
A union man has a happy life when he’s got a union wife |
