I Am A Union Woman

歌詞

I am a union woman Just as brave as I can be I do not like the bosses And the bosses don't like me Join the N.M.U. Come join the N.M.U. I was raised in Kentucky In Kentucky borned and bred And when I joined the union They called me a Russian red Join the N.M.U. Come join the N.M.U. When my husband asked the boss for a job This is the words he said: "Bill Jackson, I can't work you, sir Your wife's a Rooshian red" Come join the N.M.U. Join the N.M.U. If you want to join a union As strong as one can be Join the dear old NMU And come along with me If you want to join a union Step in and come along We'll all be glad to have you We're many thousand strong Come join the N.M.U. Join the N.M.U. We are many thousand strong And I am glad to say We are getting stronger And stronger every day If you want to get your freedom And gain your liberty Join the dear old CIO Also the ILD Join the N.M.U. Come join the N.M.U. Just join the dear old ILD And come along with me The workers are all protected By the dear old ILD Join the N.M.U. Come join the N.M.U. The bosses ride the big fine white horse While we walk in the mud Their flag's the old red, white and blue And ours is dipped in blood
