  • 作曲 : Kellogg
    My children are seven in number
    We have to sleep four in a bed
    I'm striking with my fellow workers
    To get them more clothes and more bread
    Shoes, shoes, we're striking for pairs of shoes
    Shoes, shoes, we're striking for pairs of shoes
    Pellagra is cramping my stomach
    My wife is sick with TB
    My babies are starving for sweet milk
    Oh there's so much sickness for me
    Milk, milk, we're striking for gallons of milk
    Milk, milk, we're striking for gallons of milk
    I'm needing a shave and a haircut
    But barbers I cannot afford
    My wife cannot wash without soapsuds
    And she had to borrow a board
    Soap, soap, we're striking for bars of soap
    Soap, soap, we're striking for bars of soap
    My house is a shack on the hillside
    It's floors are unpainted and bare
    I haven't a screen to my windows
    And carbide cans do for a chair
    Homes, homes, we're striking for better homes
    Homes, homes, we're striking for better homes
    They shot Barney Graham our leader
    His spirit abides with us still
    The spirit of strength for justice
    No bullets have power to kill
    Barney, Barney, we're thinking of you today
    Barney, Barney, we're thinking of you today
    Oh miners go on with the union
    Oh miners go on with the fight
    For we're in the struggle for justice
    And we're in the struggle right
    Justice, justice, we're striking for justice for all
    Justice, justice, we're striking for justice for all
