Joe Hill

[Verse 1]
I dreamt I saw Joe Hill last night
Alive as you and me
Said I to Joe 'you're ten years dead'
'I never died' said he
'I never died' said he

[Verse 2]
The copper bosses killed you Joe
They pumped you full of lead
'Takes more than guns to kill a man'
Said Joe, and 'I ain't dead'
Said Joe, and 'I ain't dead'

[Verse 3]
And standing there as large as life
Smiling with his eyes
Said Joe 'what they forgot to kill
We're going to organise'
'We're going to organise'

[Verse 4]
In Salt Lake City you and I
Stood their side by side
'They framed you on a murder charge'
Said Joe 'I'd never die'
Said Joe 'I'd never die'

[Verse 5]
From San Diego up to Maine
In every mine and mill
Where working me defend their rights
That's where you'll find Joe Hill
That's where you'll find Joe Hill

[Verse 6]
I dreamt I saw Joe Hill last night
Alive as you and me
Said I to Joe 'you're ten years dead'
'I never died' said he
'I never died' said he
