Strawbs - Part of the union 1973

nyquistic... well said... we earn money they make money!!

I actually first heard this on 91-X out of San Diego when I was in my late teens or early 20's. I initially thought it was by some obscure punk act, but was pleasantly surprised to learn it was actually an established English folk artist. This was back in the days when radio was still interesting.

Great memories from an age old favourite!!

This is _actually_ an anti-union song. Like Springsteen's Born in the USA -- it ended up being applauded by the people it was directed against. Funny auld world it is an' all...

hard times are coming we need to be together. The union is for the working man

If you are employed you should think long and hard about the fact that you are ultimately a cost to your employer. When the going gets tough, costs get cut. Your only protection as a worker is your Trades Union. Join up now, before it's too late.
