Originally played by Joe Hill, this is one of the most famous IWW songs. To the tune of There is Power in the Blood of the Lamb.

^FWould you have freedom from^F wage slav^Fery? Then ^Gjoin in the grand in^Fdustrial band Would you from mis^F'ry and ^Fhunger be free Then co^Gme do your share like a^F man

CHORUS:

^FThere is power, There is power, in a ^Fband of working^F men When they ^Gstand hand in ^Fhand ^FThere is power, There is power, that must ^Frule in every ^Fland One ^Gindustrial union ^Fgrand

-Chorus-

^FWould you have mansions of g^Fold in the s^Fky And live^G in a shack, way in ^Fthe back? Would you have wings up ^Fin Heaven ^Fto fly And star^Gve here with rags on yo^Fur back?

-Chorus- If you've had enough of the blood of the lamb Then join in the grand industrial band If, for a change, you'd have eggs and ham Then come do your share like a man -Chorus- If you like sluggers to beat off 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- Come all ye workers, from every land Come join the grand industrial band Then we our share of this earth shall demand Come on, do your share like a man -Chorus- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Hill
