Well, [C] upon a lonely railroad spike my hammer swung and fell
[G] Down a night in Mississippi with a raging water swell
[C] In the corner of that factory a dark man made hell
[G] I'll be sitting there in my snare making what they sell
With [C] a silver spoon breaking my [E] teeth for boys on the line working [G] just heat
Are [C] you picturing the [D] stories that I sing?
A [C] child working day [G] and night a father turned into a ghost inside
[C] The wage slave knows [G] so well that [Dm] hopeless strain
[A] Of a poor man just trying [D] to remain
As he pays the [Em] toll of the [G] [Em]
[G] [D] [C] tear-rolled age of Adam
[G] To the workers of Boas
[C] Then doom to hear this crazy [G] song and it's made me who I am
[C] From the steelworkers of Pittsburgh [G] to the chucker and his load
[C] I'll feed that old fat [G] cat just hoping he'll explode
[A] With a silver spoon breaking my [G] teeth for boys on the line working just heat
Are you picturing the [D] stories that I sing?

[G] For [A] a husband [Em] a sweat must be [D] working just to fall out [C] of a slave
[D] The racial call [Dm] that must stay [A]
here
That racial [D] call
From [Cm] the tear-rolled age of Adam [G] to the workers of Boas
