| There is power in a democracy, power in the land
|
| Power in the hands of a worker
|
| But it all amounts to nothing if together we don’t stand
|
| There is a power in a Union
|
| Now the lessons of the past were all learned with workers' blood
|
| The mistakes of the bosses we must pay for
|
| From the cities to the farmlands in the trenches full of mud
|
| 'cause war has always been the bosses' way sir
|
| The Union forever defending our rights
|
| Let’s fight the Right Wing, all workers unite
|
| With our brothers and our sisters from many far off lands
|
| There is power in a Union
|
| Now I long for the time that they realize
|
| Brutality and unjust laws cannot defeat us
|
| But who’ll defend the workers who cannot organize
|
| When the gop send their attorneys out to cheat us?
|
| Money speaks for money, the Devil for his own
|
| Who’ll come speak for the skin and the bone?
|
| What a comfort to widow, a light for the child
|
| There is power in a Union
|
| The Union forever defending our rights
|
| Let’s fight the Right Wing, all workers unite
|
| With our brothers and our sisters from many far off lands
|
| There is power in a Union
|
| With social justice and equality
|
| For every man and woman who wants it
|
| There is power in a Union |
