Lyrics
Pulitzer and Hearst, they think we're nothin'
Are we nothin'?
No!
Pulitzer and Hearst, they think they got us
Do they got us?
No!
Even though we ain't got hats or badges
We're a union just by sayin' so
And the world will know!
What's it gonna take to stop the wagons?
Are we ready?
Yeah!
What's it gonna take to stop the scabbers?
Can we do it?
Yeah!
We'll do what we gotta do
Until we break the will of mighty Bill and Joe
And the world will know!
And the journal too!
Mister Hearst and Pulitzer, have we got news for you
See the world don't know
What they gonna pay
'Stead of hawkin' headlines, we'll be makin' 'em today
And our ranks will grow
And we'll kick their rear
And the world will know that we been here!
When the circulation bell starts ringin'
Will we hear it?
No!
What if the Delanceys come out swingin'
Will we hear it?
No!
When you got a hundred voices singin'
Who can hear a lousy whistle blow?
And the world will know!
That this ain't no game
That we got a ton of rotten fruit and perfect aim
So they gave their word
Well it ain't worth beans!
Now they're gonna see what stop the presses really means!
And the old will weep
And go back to sleep
And we got no choice but to see it through
And we've found our boys!
And I lost my shoe!
And the world will-
Yeah!
Pulitzer may own the world, but he don't own us!
(Pulitzer may own the world, but he don't own us!)
Pulitzer may crack the whip, but he won't whip us!
(Pulitzer may crack the whip, but he won't whip us!)
And the world will know!
We been keepin' score
Either they gives us our rights or we gives them a war!
We been down too long
And we payed our dues
And the things we do today will be tomorrow's news!
And the die is cast!
And the torches passed!
And the roar will rise!
And the streets will grow!
And our ranks will grow and grow and grow and so
The world will feel the fire and finally know!
(Pulitzer may own the world, but he don't own us!)
Pulitzer may own the world, but he don't own us!
(Pulitzer may crack the whip, but he won't whip us!)
Pulitzer may crack the whip, but he won't whip us!
So the world says no!
Well the kids do too!
Try to walk all over us, we'll stomp all over you!
Can they kick us out?
Take away our vote?
Will we let 'em stuff this crock of garbage down our throat?
No!
Every day we wait
Is a day we lose
And this ain't for fun!
And it ain't for show!
And we'll fight 'em toe to toe to toe and Joe
Your world will feel the fire and finally
Finally know!
