Red Vanguard - There is Power in a Union Lyrics

Would you have freedom from Wage slavery
Then join in the grand Industrial band
Would you from mis'ry and hunger be free
Then come, do your share, like a man

There is pow'r there is pow'r in a band of workingmen
When they stand hand in hand
That's a pow'r, that's a pow'r
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 starve here with rags on your back?

There is pow'r there is pow'r in a band of workingmen
When they stand hand in hand
That's a pow'r, that's a pow'r
That must rule in every land
One Industrial Union Grand

If you've had 'nuff of the "blood of the lamb"
Then join in the grand industrial band
If, for a change, you would have eggs and ham
Then come, do your share, like a man

There is pow'r there is pow'r in a band of workingmen
When they stand hand in hand
That's a pow'r, that's a pow'r
That must rule in every land
One Industrial Union Grand

If you like sluggers to beat off your head
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 pow'r there is pow'r in a band of workingmen
When they stand hand in hand
That's a pow'r, that's a pow'r
That must rule in every land
One Industrial Union Grand

Come, all ye 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, like a man

There is pow'r there is pow'r in a band of workingmen
When they stand hand in hand
That's a pow'r, that's a pow'r
That must rule in every land
One Industrial Union Grand
