Intro
D G A D (3X)
[VERSE 1]
D G D
Come all you workers who toil night and day
G A
By hand and by brain, to earn your pay
D G D
Who for centuries long past, for no more than your bread
G D A D
Have bled for your countries and counted your dead
[VERSE 2]
D G D
In the factories and mills, in the shipyards and mines
G A
We've often been told to keep up with the times
D G D
For our skills are not needed, they've streamlined the job
G D A D
And with slide rule and stopwatch, our pride they have robbed, Aye
[VERSE 3]
D G D
But when the sky darkens and the prospect is war
G A
Who's given the gun and then pushed to the fore
D G D
And expected to die for the land of our birth
G D A D
Though we've never owned one handful of earth
[INSTUMENTAL]
D G A D (2X)
[CHORUS]
D G D
We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
G A
We're the first ones in line for that pie in the sky
D G D
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
G D A D
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about, Aye
[VERSE 4]
D G D
And all of these things the worker has done
G A
From tilling the fields to carrying the gun
D G D
We've been yoked to the plow since time first began
G D A D
I had always expected to carry the can
