A foolhardy plan to strike against the man
But we were dedicated to his downfall
The strike went for so long, we knew that it was wrong
We couldn't lose, we knew our cause was righteous
The bosses pulled the purse, we were out of work
With nothing but our ditch left to hang on to
We fought the good fight and stood up for our rights
Now we had nowhere to belong to
I'm a union man, I've done the best I can
An honest day's work for an honest day's pay
I wouldn't have it any other way
'Cause I am a union man!
The lesson to be learned was how to do a turn
When all the cards are not upon the table
When all the cards were played, we were made betrayed
Now we're back on the welfare line
I'm a union man, I've done the best I can
An honest day's work for an honest day's pay
I wouldn't have it any other way
'Cause I am a union man, yeah!
I've been a working man all of my life
Done my best to build a future for my kids and wife
I paid my government taxes, paid my union dues
Now I'm pumping up the ass for the working class
I'm a union man, I've done the best I can
An honest day's work for an honest day's pay
I wouldn't have it any other way
'Cause I am a union man!
I'm a union man, I've done the best I can
An honest day's work for an honest day's pay
I wouldn't have it any other way
'Cause I am a union man!
Yes, I am a working man
Yes, I am!
