“Solidarity Forever”
Chorus: Solidarity forever, solidarity forever, solidarity forever,
- For the union makes us strong!
When the union’s inspiration through the worker’s blood shall run,
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one...
But the Union makes us strong!
- Chorus
They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn,
But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel could turn.
We can break their haughty power--gain our freedom when we learn
That the Union makes us strong!
- Chorus
In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold,
Greater than the might of armies magnified a hundred fold.
We can bring to earth a new world from the ashes of the old,
For the Union makes us strong!
- Chorus
