There's a call ringing loud around the country
and it echoed through our hills and father land
Directed to the union's Lech Walesa
should free the Polish people from his hands
A lot they think he is asking
but they just don't seem to understand
To have bread and meat upon the supper table
John Paul said together we will stand
Chorus:
Solidarity is together
if you don't cross the line ubderstand
Solidarity is forever
to fight Communism in our land
It's our right to form a good strong union
but most of all to fight for being free
Joe Hill like Lech Walesa was unwanted
cause he fought for the rights of you and me
Verses:
Boys it's good to be a workin
at the site of a construction or a mine
And have the good ol local five two seven
get you paid for all your overtime
Now brothers of the unions heed my story
for together we will make it by and by
Joe Hill like Lech Walesa was unwanted
cause he fought for the rights of you and me
It's our right to form a good strong union
but most of all to fight for bring free
Joe Hill like Lech Walesa was unwanted
cause he fought for the rights of you and me
Chorus:
Solidarity is together
if you don't cross the line understand
Solidarity is forever
to fight Communism in our land
It's our right to form a good stron union
but most of all to fight for being free
From the Shores of the Atlantic ocean
to the waters of Pacific in B.C. (British Colombia)
