Pete Seeger Solidarity Forever Lyrics

[Chorus]
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong

[Verse 1]
When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun;
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one
But the union makes us strong

[Chorus]
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong

[Verse 2]
It is we who plowed the prairies; built the cities where they trade;
Dug the mines and built the workshops, endless miles of railroad laid;
Now we stand outcast and starving midst the wonders we have made;
But the union makes us strong

[Chorus]
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong
[Verse 3]
They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn
But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can turn
We can break their haughty power, gain our freedom when we learn
That the union makes us strong

[Chorus]
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong

[Verse 4]
In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold
Greater than the might of armies, magnified a thousand-fold
We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old
For the union makes us strong

[Chorus]
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the union makes us strong
