Good memories are forever
Said the dog on the tombstone
If you're livin' underneath a bridge, man
I gotta hidden flask and I'm paid in cash
I hitchhiked from Chicago
And a man walked up and said
This is a union town, a union town
This is a union town, a union town
We'll give you hell every time
This is a union town, a union town
Today the policeman's a union man
Brother firefighter's my friend
And the kids locked in the Capitol
Are fighting 'til the end
And we're not gonna break tonight
Some say the union's down
This is a union town, a union town
This is a union town, a union town
And if they come to strip
We'll give 'em hell every time
This is a union town, a union town
For every action, a reaction
I gotta will to win and a Cheshire grin
Yeah, the Nightwatchman is near
And you can't get it where you're at
But you can sure get it here
So, come rain or sleet or dark of night
There's 100, 000 in the streets
And that number's gonna grow
And when we put the governor on trial
One, two, three, four - let's go!
This is a union town, a union town
This is a union town, a union town
And if they come to strip
We'll give 'em hell every time
This is a union town, a union town
