lyrics

Conditions they are bad
And some of you are sad
You cannot see your enemy
The class that lives in luxury
You workingmen are poor
Will be forevermore
As long as you permit the few
To guide your destiny
(chorus)
Shall we still be slaves and work for wages
It is outrageous
Has been for ages
Oh, This earth by right belongs to toilers
And not to spoilers of liberty
The master class is small
But they have lots of "gall"
When we unite to gain our right
If they resist we'll use our might
There is no middle ground
This fight must be one round
To victory, for liberty
Our class is marching on
[Chorus]
Workingmen, unite
We must put up a fight
To make us free from slavery
And capitalistic tyranny
This fight is not in vain
We've got a world to gain
Will you be a fool, a capitalist tool
And serve your enemy
Chorus]
