I used to roll among the hourly
I used to listen to them piss and moan
I watch you cut the throats of all of them
and monitor it from a boardroom throne

I swore that I would never take the path
that leads me down another dead end road
I will not cower to the corporate grind
you wouldn't dare to cross the picket line

Pain to pride
work is uninspired
Tried and true
so I walk the wire
I don't mind
If I bleed a while
Feels so right to be Rank and File
till I die

I used to live life like a passerby
Afraid to run I was afraid to walk
Now I'm a soldier in the union strike
We stand together we will never fall...
