Lyrics: Anonymous.
Tune: “Polly Wolly Doodle.”
The union is the place for me,
The place for working men,
Who want some time to sing and play,
And money they can spend.
On the line (on the line),
On the line (on the line),
Come and picket on the picket line.
We’ll win our fight,
Our fight for the right,
On the picket, picket line.
I am a union man because
I want a living wage;
We’ll stick together; we’ll fight together;
We’ll get that living wage.
On the line (on the line),
On the line (on the line),
Come and picket on the picket line.
We’ll win our fight,
Our fight for the right,
On the picket, picket line.
To win our strike and our demands,
Come and picket on the picket line.
In one strong union, we’ll join hands,
On the picket, picket line.
On the line (on the line),
On the line (on the line),
Come and picket on the picket line.
We’ll win our fight,
Our fight for the right,
On the picket, picket line.
