There once was a union maid
Who never was afraid
Of goons and ginks and company finks
And deputy sheriffs who made the raids
She went to the union hall
When a meeting it was called,
And when the Legion boys came `round
She always stood her ground.
cho: Oh, you can`t scare me, I`m sticking to the union,
I`m sticking to the union,I`m sticking to the union
Oh, you can`t scare me, I`m sticking to the union,
I`m sticking to the union till theday I die.
This union maid was wise
To the tricks of company spies,
She couldn`t be fooled by a company stool
She`d always organize the guys
She always got her way
When she struck for better pay.
She`d show her card to the national guard
And this is what she`d say.
You gals who want to be free
Just take a little tip from me:
Get you a man who`s a union man
And join the Ladies` Auxiliary*
Married life ain`t hard
When you got a union card,
And a union man has a happy life
When he`s got a union wife.
*in the late eighty`s wave of revisionism, this became `And fight
together for liberty`. Woody never said that. RG
Note: Oddly, this is a parody (political) of a parody (bawdy) of
a pop song of the mid-1800s.RG
