There Is Power in a Union Lyrics

[Intro]
It's Joe Hill's best song. Sorry, we almost missed the damn the thing. The chorus is:
"There is power, there is power in a band of workingfolks
When they stand hand in hand
That's a power, that's a power that must rule in every land:
One industrial union grand"
I'll teach you the chorus!

[Chorus]
There is power, there is power in a band of workingfolks
When they stand hand in hand
That's a power, that's a power that must rule in every land:
One industrial union grand
Have you got that again? Do you understand the chorus? Everybody got it now? Alright

[Verse 1]
Oh, would you have freedom from wage slavery
Then come join the grand Industrial band
Would you from misery and hunger be free
Come on, do your share, lend a hand

[Chorus]
There is power, there is power in a band of workingfolks
When they stand hand in hand
That's a power, that's a power that must rule in every land:
One industrial union grand

[Verse 2]
Oh, would you have mansions of gold in the sky
And live in a shack that's all way in the back?
Would you have wings up in heaven to fly
And starve here with rags on your back?

[Chorus]
But there is power, there is power in a band of workingfolks
When they stand hand in hand
That's a power, that's a power that must rule in every land:
One industrial union grand

Oh, if you like sluggers to beat in 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

[Chorus]
But there is power, there is power in a band of workingfolks
When they stand hand in hand
That's a power, that's a power that must rule in every land:
One industrial union grand

[Verse 4]
So come, all ye workers, from every land
And come, join the grand industrial band
Then we our share of this earth shall demand
Come on, do your share, lend a hand

[Chorus]
There is power, there is power in a band of workingfolks
When they stand hand in hand
That's a power, that's a power that must rule in every land:
One industrial union grand

[Outro]
*Applause*
Power to the union!
*Applause*
*Whistling*
*Cheering*

[remove this part]
If you've had 'nuff of the "blood of the lamb"
