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