Subject: RE: Songs about women, but not about love
There once was a union maid who never was afraid
of the goons and the ginks and the company finks
and the deputy sheriffs who made the raid.
She went to the union hall when a meeting it was called,
and when the Pinkerton boys came around she always stood her ground.

CHORUS:
Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union,
I'm stickin' to the union. I'm stickin' to the union.
Oh, you can't scare me, I'm stickin' to the union,
I'm stickin' to the union 'til the day I die.

This union maid was wise to the tricks of the company spies.
She never was fooled by a company stool. She'd always organize the guys.
She always got her way when she struck for better pay.
She'd show her card to the national guard and this is what she'd say:
