[G]Would you have freedom from [C]Wage slavery,
[D]Then join in the grand In[G]dustrial band;
Would you from mis'ry and [C]hunger be free,
[D]Then come, do your share, like a [G]man.
[CHORUS]
There is [G]power, there is power in a [C]band of working[G]men,
When they [D]stand hand in [G]hand,
That's a power, that's a power That must [C]rule in every [G]land—
One In[D]dustrial Union [G]Grand.
[G]Would you have mansions of [C]gold in the sky,
and [D]live in a shack, [G]way in the back?
Would you have wings up in [C]heaven to fly,
And [D]starve here with rags on your [G]back?
If [G]you've had `nuff of the &[C]quot;blood of the lamb"
Then [D]join in the grand in[G]dustrial band;
If, for a change, you would [C]have eggs and ham,
Then [D]come, do your share, like a [G]man.
[G]If you like sluggers to [C]beat off your head,
Then [D]don't organize, all [G]unions despise.
If you want nothing [C]before you are dead,
Shake [D]hands with your boss and look [G]Wise.
[G]Come, all ye workers, from [C]every land,
[D]Come, join in the grand in[G]dustrial band;
Then we our share of this [C]earth shall demand.
Come [D]on! Do your share, like a [G]man.
[D]Then join in the grand In[G]dustrial band;
Would you from mis'ry and [C]hunger be free,
[D]Then come, do your share, like a [G]man.
