Union Maid Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]There [G]once was[D] a union
maid, she never was afraid
Of goons [A]and ginks and company finks and the
deputy sheriffs [D]who made the raid.
She went [G]to the union hall when
a meeting [D]it was called,
And when the Legion
boys come 'round
She always stood her [G]ground.

[Verse 2]
Oh, you can't [D]scare me,
I'm sticking to the union,
I'm stick[A]ing to the union,
I'm sticking to the union.
Oh, you [G]can't scare me,
I'm sticking to [D]the union,
I'm sticking [A]to the union 'til the day I die.

[Verse 3]
This union maid was wise to the tricks
of company [D]spies,
She couldn't be fooled by a company stool,
she'd always organize the guys.
[G]She always got her way when
she struck for better pay.
She'd show her card to
the National Guard
And [D]this is what she'd say

[Verse 4]
You gals who want to be free, just
take a tip from me;
Get you a [A]man who's a union man
and join the ladies' auxiliary.
Married life ain't hard when
you got [D]a union card,
A union man has a happy life
when he's got a union wife.
