No More Reds In The Union Lyrics


Utah Phillips No More Reds In The Union




Oh, the company's so good to me
There's no more reds in the union
I'm as respectable as can be
There's no more reds in the union
My wages they are up so high
My family's starvin' so am I, but sooner than complain, I'd die...
There's no more reds in the union

Oh I'm paid the lowest wage on earth
There's no more reds in the union
I'm paid exactly what I'm worth
There's no more reds in the union
I think the company is fair
They speed me up but I don't care, my kids complain but I don't dare...
There's no more reds in the union

We never talk of worker's rights
There's no more reds in the union
They tell us that it leads to fights
There's no more reds in the union
Our leaders they have always said that folks that talk like that are red
So we listen to the boss instead...
There's no more reds in the union

Each year we have a swell affair
There's no more reds in the union
The bosses and their friends are there
There's no more reds in the union
They give us food they give us beer
But one thing does seem mighty queer
We eat that good but once a year...
There's no more reds in the union
