There Is Power in a Union [Chinese translation]

Would you have freedom from wage slavery?

Then join in the grand Industrial band

Would you from mis’ry and hunger be free

Then come, do your share, like a man

[chorus:]

There is power, there is power

In a band of workingmen,

When they stand hand in hand

That’s a power, that’s a power

That must rule in every land,

One Industrial Union Grand

Would you have mansions of gold in the sky

and live in a shack, way in the back?

Would you have wings up in heaven to fly

And starve here with rags on your back?

[chorus]

If you’ve had enough of the “blood of the lamb”

Then join in the grand industrial band

If, for a change, you would have eggs and ham

Then come, do your share, like a man

[chorus]

If you like sluggers to beat off your head

Then don’t organize, all unions despise.

If you want nothing before you are dead

Shake hands with your boss and look wise

[chorus]

Come, all ye workers, from every land,

Come, join in the grand industrial band

Then we our share of this earth shall demand.

Come on! Do your share, like a man.

[chorus]
