Lyrics Deacon Blue – Which Side Are You On?
Text:
Which side are you on?
(Which side?)
Which side are you on?
(Which side?)
Which side are you on?
(Which side?)
Which side are you on?
(Which side?)
Which side are you on?
Come all of you good workers
Good news to you I’ll tell
Of how that good old union
Has come in here to dwell
They say in Harlan County,
There are no neutrals there
You’ll either be a union man
Or a thug for J.H. Blair
Workers can you stand it
Tell me how you can
Will you be a union scab
Or will you be a man
Don’t scab for the bosses
Don’t listen to their lies
Us poor folks haven’t got a chance
Unless we organize
Slow trains been coming
Since 1979
It’s time us folk decided
Which side we are on
