Joe Hill

Oh, I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night

Alive as you and me

Says I "But Joe, you're ten years dead"

"I never died" says he

"I never died" says he

"The Copper Bosses killed you Joe

They shot you Joe" says I

"The guns can never kill a man"

Says Joe "I didn't die"

Says Joe "I didn't die"

And standing there as big as life

And smiling with his eyes

Says Joe "What they could never kill

Went on to organize

Went on to organize"

From San Diego up to Maine

In every mine and mill

Where working folks defend their rights

Is there you find Joe Hill

Is there you find Joe Hill

Oh, I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night

Alive as you and me

Says I "But Joe, you're ten years dead"

"I never died" said he

"I never died" said he
