Son Volt Union Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Upstate versus downstate
City versus county
Rural versus urban
Red versus the blue

[Chorus]
He said National Service will keep the Union together
He said National Service will keep the Union together

[Verse 2]
Privileged and the poor
Every class and every color
Together in spirit
Building blocks of a nation

[Chorus]
He said National Service will keep the Union together
He said National Service will keep the Union together [Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
A two-party system
The donkey and the elephant
Liberals and conservatives
Each fight for their own survival
[Chorus]
He said National Service will keep the Union together
He said National Service will keep the Union together

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
He said National Service will keep the Union together
He said National Service will keep the Union together
