  • There was a song by the Strawbs called "Part of the Union" which got fairly high up the charts.

    However, I think that Neil Young had a song called "Union Man".

    Union Man-Cate Brothers is this the one
    Song Lyrics: Union Man

    well Its 6 a.m.
    Im out on the job
    working like a fool for my pay
    a big man walks by, with a smile
    says you got to go on strike today
    hey,hey Mr. union man
    how am I gonna pay my dues,
    or the land lord or the doctor
    how am I gonna get new shoes?
    well I know I need to help
    to get that raise,
    one thing I dont like
    tell me how can I feed my hungry family
    if you say Im going on strike
    hey,hey Mr. union man
    how am I gonna pay my dues
    owe my money, how I can pay?
    looks like Im bound to lose

    Well dont see how
    Im going to get that raise
    seems like there aint no way
    well,you solve the money problems
    I understand but ya try to see things my way
    hey hey mr. union man
    thank you for the helping hand
    hey hey mr. union man
    so glad that you understand

    hey hey mr. union man
    so glad that you understand
  • If it is the Neil Young version it can be bought at CD-Wow

  • Is it track 4 here ?


    Available here for a fiver, but probably worth searching the music download sites if you just want the one track.
    Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way.
