There Is Power in a Union |
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 |
