Pete Seeger - Solidarity Forever lyrics

Solidarity forever solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong

When the union's inspiration through the
Workers' 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

Solidarity forever solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong

It is we who plowed the prairies
Built the cities where they trade
Dug the mines and built the workshops
Endless miles of railroad laid
Now we stand outcast and starving midst
The wonders we have made
But the union makes us strong

Solidarity forever solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong

They have taken untold millions that
They never toiled to earn
But without our brain and muscle not
A single wheel can turn
We can break their haughty power
Gain our freedom when we learn
That the union makes us strong

Solidarity forever solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong

In our hands is placed a power
Greater than their hoarded gold
Greater than the might of armies
Magnified a thousand-fold
We can bring to birth a new world
From the ashes of the old
For the union makes us strong

Solidarity forever solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong
