Lyrics
He’s a hard working union man Feeding a family of five Paying dues and bills and Uncle Sam Faithfully on time Works a double shift when he can ‘Cause for him there’s no free ride A believer in our promised land Trying to keep his dream alive So he’s standing on his feet Carrying a sign Take your business down the street Don’t cross this line There’s a flash of one union man On the local TV news Reporters say they understand The price of fame he’ll choose Well this strike may last a month or more But the union man stays strong He needs strength in numbers to be sure All he’s worked for won’t be gone So he’s standing on his feet Carrying a sign Take your business down the street Don’t cross this line Rising for justice In solidarity The union man and me We’re in good company Standing on our feet Carrying a sign Take your business down the street Don’t cross this line (c) 2008 by Trudee Lunden, Scaramouche Music, All Rights Reserved
