PART OF THE UNION STRAWBS -------------------------------------------------------------------- John Ford & Richard Hudson Now I'm a Union man, Amazed at what I am I say I think that the company stinks, yes, I'm a Union man. When we meet in the local hall, I'll be voting with them all With a hell of a shout It's "out brothers out", And the rise of the factory's fall. Union man I'm wise, To the lies of the company spies, And I don't get fooled by the factory rules, 'Cos I always read between the lines. And I always get my way, If I strike for higher pay When I show my card to the Scotland Yard And this is what I say. Oh you don't get me, I'm part of the Union; You don't get me, I'm part of the Union, You don't get me, I'm part of the Union 'Til the day I die, 'Til the day I die. Before the Union did appear My life was half as clear Now I've got the power to the working hour And every other day of the year. So though I'm a working man I can ruin the governments plan I'm not too hard, but the sight of my card Makes me some kind of superman. Oh you don't get me . . .
