Which Side Are You On?

         A Song by Florence Reese

         Come all of you good workers
         Good news to you I'll tell
         Of how that good old union
         Has come in here to dwell

         Chorus
         Which side are you on?
         Which side are you on?
         Which side are you on?
         Which side are you on?

         My daddy was a miner
         And I'm a miner's son
         And I'll stick with the union
         Till every battle's won

         They say in Harlan County
         There are no neutrals there
         You'll either be a union man
         Or a thug for J.H. Blair

         Oh, workers can you stand it?
         Oh, tell me how you can
         Will you be a lousy scab
         Or will you be a man?

         Don't scab for the bosses
         Don't listen to their lies
         Us poor folks haven't got a chance
         Unless we organize
