Whatever Happened to Talking Union and Other Union Songs?

Something we sing about loud our theme song

Bombed back into the stone O yes Billy Bragg’s

Singing tonight he shakes his fist in anger he sings

Like as if Woody Guthrie stood beside him maybe

Woody Guthrie stands beside him offering his

Sure hand his fist in the face of O we know

Woody refused the new world order he never

Capitalized new world order or any great leap

Forwards not Woody Guthrie or Billy Bragg not

Waiting for the great leap forwards that’s what

Whatever star falls tonight and one always falls

Tells us to say and we believe it we have to believe

Whatever happened to the unions in America?

Whatever happened to the word of the worker?
