Now, there once was a union maid She never was afraid Of the goons and the ginks And the company finks And the deputy sheriffs who made the raid And she went to the union hall Where a meeting, it was called And when the boys would come up to her Lord, this is what she'd say
Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union I'm stickin' to the union, I'm stickin' to the union Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union I'm stickin' to the union, till the day I die
Now this union maid was wise To the tricks of the company spies She'd take the dare She didn't care She'd always organize the guys And she always got her way When she asked for better pay She showed her card to the National Guard Honey, this is what they'd say
Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union I'm stickin' to the union, I'm stickin' to the union Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union I'm stickin' to the union, till the day I die
Now, you girls who wanna be free Just take a little tip from me Oh, get you a man who's a union man And you can join the Ladies' Auxiliary Because married life ain't hard When you got a union card And the union life is a happy life If you've got a union wife
Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union I'm stickin' to the union, I'm stickin' to the union Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union I'm stickin' to the union, till the day I die
Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union I'm stickin' to the union, I'm stickin' to the union Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union I'm stickin' to the union, till the day I die
