Lyrics:
“Which Side Are You On?” is a trade-union song written in 1931 by Florence Reece, the wife of a union organizer for the United Mine Workers in Harlan County, Kentucky.
Our father was a union man
Someday I'll be one too
The bosses fired daddy
What's our family gonna do?
Come all you good workers
Good news to you I'll tell
Of how the good ol' union
Is coming here to dwell
Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
My daddy was a miner
And I'm a miner's son
And I'll stick with the union
'Til every battle's won
Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
They say in Harlan County
There are no neutrals there
You'll either be a union man
Or a thug for J. H. Blair
Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
Oh, workers can you stand it?
Oh, tell me how you can
Will you be a lousy scab
Or will you be a man?
Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
Don't scab for the bosses
Don't listen to their lies
Us poor folks haven't got a chance
Unless we organize
Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
