Redwing Sheet Music




Sound Files: Slow Fast

Words to this tune by Woodie Guthrie:

Union Maid

There once was a union maid, she never was afraid
Of goons and ginks and 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 Legion boys come 'round
She always stood her ground.

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

  1. Composed by 'Kerry' Mills, 1907. The original sheet music is in the online collection of the Duke University Library which also has 'Dill Pickle' and hundreds of other original music favorites... :-)
