[Verse 1]
G
[tab]   C             G
We must put up a fight,

G
To make us free from slavery

    D            G
And capitalistic tyranny;

G
This fight is not in vain,

      C              G
We've got a world to gain.

G
Will you be a fool, a capitalist tool,

    D             G
And serve your enemy?
[Chorus]
G        C                            G
Shall we still be slaves and work for wages?

G        D                     G
It is outrageous--has been for ages;

G      C                         G
O! The earth by right belongs to toilers,

G          D                G
And not to spoilers of liberty.
[Verse 2]
G
Conditions they are bad,

    C               G
And some of you are sad;

G
You cannot see your enemy,

    D                       G
The class that lives in luxury,--

G
You workingmen are poor,--

     C         G
Will be forevermore,--

G
As long as you permit the few

   D               G
To guide your destiny.
[Chorus]
G        C                            G
Shall we still be slaves and work for wages?

G        D                     G
It is outrageous--has been for ages;

G      C                         G
O! The earth by right belongs to toilers,

G          D                G
And not to spoilers of liberty.
[Verse 3]
G
The master class is small,

    C                  G
But they have lots of "gall."

G
When we unite to gain our right,

   D                 G
If they resist we'll use our might;

G
There is no middle ground

     C                 G
This fight must be one round

G
To victory, for liberty,

    D                 G
Our class is marching on!
[Chorus]
G        C                            G
Shall we still be slaves and work for wages?

G        D                     G
It is outrageous--has been for ages;

G      C                         G
O! The earth by right belongs to toilers,

G          D                G
And not to spoilers of liberty.
