Union Town - Tom Morello

Good memories are forever

Said the dog on the tombstone

If you're livin' underneath a bridge man

All roads lead to home

I gotta hidden flask and I'm paid in cash

Gotta cross above my bed

I hitchhiked from Chicago

And a man walked up and said

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

And if you come to strip our rights away

We'll give you hell every time

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

Today the policeman's a union man

Brother firefighter's my friend

And the kids locked in the Capitol

Are fighting 'til the end

And we're not gonna break tonight

And we're not gonna bend

Some say the union's down

But I asked around

And everybody said

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

And if they come to strip our rights away

We'll give 'em hell every time

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

For every action a reaction

Equal and opposite

That's why my friend the blood tastes good

Every time I'm hit

I gotta will to win and a Cheshire grin

Yeah the Nightwatchman is near

And you can't get it where you're at

But you can sure get it here

So come rain or sleet or dark of night

Come wind or frigid snow

There's 100 000 in the streets

And that number's gonna grow

And when we put the governor on trial

I'll be in the front row

Just take a look around

We're a union town

One two three four let's go

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

And if they come to strip our rights away

We'll give 'em hell every time

This is a union town a union town

All down the line

All down the line
