CHORUS
Unite, my Fellow Men, unite!
Take back your freedom and your right
You have nothing to lose now,
Workers of the World, unite.
Oh! workingmen, come organize,
Oh! when, oh! when will you get wise?
Are you still going to be a fool,
And let the rich man o'er you rule?
It is time that you were waking,
See the dawn is breaking
Come now, wake up from your dream.
All this wealth belong to toilers,
And not to the spoilers,
Wage slaves throw your chains away.
CHORUS
Unite, my Fellow, Men unite!
And crush the greedy tyrant's might
The earth belongs to Labor,
Workers of the World, unite.
THE WORKERS OF THE WORLD ARE NOW AWAKING
By Richard Brazier
(Tune: "The Shade of the Old Apple Tree")
The Workers of the World are now awaking;
The earth is shaking' with their mighty tread.
The master class in great fear now are quaking,
The sword of Damocles hangs o'er their head.
The toilers in one union are uniting,
To overthrow their cruel master's reign.
