On May Day there's a flag unfurled
In city streets across the world
And every bell in the city's rung
Every freedom song that's yet unsung
Will find a voice, will find a way
To fill the air
On the first of May
And in the storm we'll bend
Like the willow give
But together we will stand
A wall against the wind
A candle lit for every soul
Who's perished along freedom's road
At the barricade or in the jail cell
To struggle hard is to struggle well
If struggle is alive today
We're marching out
On the first of May
And in the storm we'll bend
Like the willow give
But together we will stand
A wall against the wind
And in the storm we'll bend
Like the willow give
But together we will stand, my friend
A wall against the wind
A wall against the wind
A wall against the wind
In the sweatshop there are whispers
In the migrant field, clenched fists
And in the prison yard there's a rumor
That there's something they might have missed
In every mill and mine and shop
Every baton swing of every crooked cop
Every dirty threat, every boss's curse
"Keep your mouth shut, keep your eyes on your work"
I'll take my chances, today's the day
The clock ticks down
To the first of May
And in the storm we'll bend
Like the willow give
But together we will stand
A wall against the wind
And in the storm we'll bend
Like the willow give
But together we will stand, my friend
A wall against the wind
A wall against the wind
A wall against the wind
A wall against the wind
A wall against the wind
