Lyrics
Pulitzer and (E7)Hearst, they (A)think we're nothing!
(E)Are we nothing?
(A)No! (B)(G)Pulitzer and Hearst, they (C)think they got us.
(G)Do they got us?
(C)No! (D)(Em)Even though we ain't got hats (B)or (Em)badges,
(D)we're a (G)union (C)just by (F)saying (B)so.
And the (C)World (D)will (E5)know.
What's it gonna (E7)take to (A)stop the wagons?
(E)Are we ready?
(A)Yeah! (B)(G)What's it gonna take to (C)stop the scabbers?
(G)Can we do it?
(C)Yeah! (D)(Em)We'll do what we got ta do (B)(Em)until we (D)break the (G)will of (C)Mighty (F)Bill and
(B)Joe. And the (C)World (D)will (E5)know.
(Em)know. And the (C)(D)Journal (G)too.
Mister Hearst and (Bm7)Pulitzer, have (Em)we got (D)news for (G)you.
See, the (Cmaj7)World (D)don't (Em)know,
(D)but they're gonna (G)pay.
'Stead of hawkin' (Bm7)headlines, we'll be (D)makin' 'em (G)today!
And our ranks will (C)grow!
And we'll kick their (F)rear!
And the World will (B5)know (B7)that (C#m7)we (B)been (E5)here.
(E7)When the circulation (A)bell starts ringing,
will we hear it?
No! (B)(G)What if the Delanceys (C)come out swinging?
Will we hear it?
No! (B)When ya got a (Em)hundred (B)voices (Em)singing,
(D)who can (G)hear a (C)lousy (F)whistle (B)blow?
And the (C)World (D)will (Em)know
that this (C)ain't (D)no (G)choice but to see it through,
(E)and the world (E7)will...
(F)Pulitzer may (Em)own the (Am)World,
but he don't own (C)us!
litzer may own the World, but he don't own (F)Pulitzer may (Em)crack the (Am)whip,
but he won't whip (E)us!
litzer may crack the whip, but he won't whip (Esus)us!
And the (F)World (G)will (A5)know we been (F)(G)keepin' (C)score.
Either they gives (Em7)us our rights or (G)we give them a (C)war.
We been (Fmaj7)down (G)too (Am)long, and we paid our (C)dues.
And the things we (Em7)do today will (G)be tomorrow's (C)news.
And the die is (F)cast.
