Union Maid

There once was a union maid she never was afraid                      of goons and ginks and company finks     and the deputy sheriffs who made the raid.          She went to the union hall when a meeting it was called                          and when the Legion boys come ’round     she always stood her ground.         Oh you can’t scare me I’m sticking to the union                   I’m sticking to the union I’m sticking to the union.                         Oh you can’t scare me I’m sticking to the union                   I’m sticking to the union        ’til the day I die.              This union maid was wise to the tricks of company spies                              she couldn’t be fooled by a company stool     she’d always organize the guys.     She always got her way when she struck for better pay.                               She’d show her card to the National Guard       and this is what she’d say:            You gals who want to be free just take a tip from me                            Get you a man who’s a union man           and join the ladies’ auxiliary.        Married life ain’t hard when you got a union card                       A union man has a happy life when he’s got a union wife.
