Actually, you probably recalled it from the singing of Hedy West. It was written by her father and trade union organiser, Don West, and recorded by Hedy on her LP, Serves 'em Fine. Fontana STL5432.

A very powerful song thought and one which should be back in circulation. It puts me in mind of that most frightening of all anti-racist songs, Strange Fruit.
