Well I'm here to tell you a story
About a man that I once knew
Used to talk of workers rights
Until his face was blue
Used to talk of indiscretions
That the boss at all times commit
Used to tell us of discrimination
And never to commit
Now it's time that he was leaving
'cause the boss wants him put down
But you see him on the freedom trail
In every company town
'Cause he's been organizing
Oh against wage slavery
For all of the working folk
In every country
Said the luggers and the miners
Oh they worked hard for their pay
It's the only game in town
But you can hΠ΅ar all the people say
"HΠ΅y they raped the land, now the companies gone"
They have to live with what is left
Can't blame that on the workers
But it goes down as their debt
Now it's time that he was leaving
'cause the boss wants him put down
But you see him on the freedom trail
In every company town
Cause he's been organizing
Oh against wage slavery
For all of the working folk
In every country
Now it's time that he was leaving
'cause the boss wants him put down
But you see him on the freedom trail
In every company town
Cause he's been organizing
Oh against wage slavery
For all of the working folk
In every country
Now when he goes, there'll be singing
Of all the songs that he has sung
They'll be telling stories
Oh about the things he's done
He told us of the power
When we all stand as one
Tell every single worker, every daughter, every son
Now it's time that he was leaving
'cause the boss wants him put down
But you see him on the freedom trail
In every company town
Cause he's been organizing
Oh against wage slavery
For all of the working folk
In every country
Yes for all of the working folk
In every country
