[00:19.17] There is power in a factory, power in the land
[00:24.00] Power in the hands of a worker
[00:28.42] But it all amounts to nothing if together we don't stand
[00:33.28] There is power in a union
[00:37.56] Now the lessons of the past were all learned with workers blood
[00:42.19] The mistakes of the bosses we must pay for
[00:46.66] From the cities and the farmlands to trenches full of mud
[00:51.34] War has always been the bosses way, sir
[00:55.96] The union forever defending our rights
[01:00.72] Down with the blackleg, all workers unite
[01:04.97] With our brothers and our sisters together we will stand
[01:09.87] There is power in a union
[01:14.35] Now I long for the morning that they realize
[01:18.24] Brutality and unjust laws can not defeat us
[01:23.50] But who'll defend the workers, who cannot organize
[01:27.90] When the bosses send their lackies out to cheat us?
[01:32.65] Money speaks for money, the devil for his own
[01:37.19] Who comes to speak for the skin and the bone
[01:41.51] What a comfort to the widow, a light to the child
[01:46.27] There is power in a union
[02:08.50] The union forever defending our rights
[02:13.06] Down with the blackleg, all workers unite
[02:17.49] With our brothers and our sisters together we will stand
[02:22.44] There is power in a union
[02:31.49]
