Fraser River from Mayday by Slime Mold

fellow workers pay attention
to what i'm gonna mention
for it is the fixed intention
of the workers of the world
that we should all be ready
true hearted, brave, and steady
to rally round our standard
when the red flag is unfurled

where the fraser river flows
each fellow worker knows
they have bullied and oppressed us,
but still our union grows
and we're gonna find a way, folks,
shorter hours and higher pay, folks,
and we're gonna win the day, folks,
where the fraser river flows!

all these gunny-sack contractors
have all been dirty actors
they're not our benefactors
each fellow worker knows
so we gotta stick together
in fine or dirty weather
and we'll show no white feather
where the fraser river flows

where the fraser river flows
each fellow worker knows
they have bullied and oppressed us,
but still our union grows
and we're gonna find a way, folks,
shorter hours and higher pay, folks,
and we're gonna win the day, folks,
where the fraser river flows!

now the boss to law is stretching
bulls and pimps he's fetching
and they're a fine collection
as jesus only knows
but why their mothers reared them
and why the devil spared them
are questions we can't answer
where the fraser river flows

where the fraser river flows
each fellow worker knows
they have bullied and oppressed us,
but still our union grows
and we're gonna find a way, folks,
shorter hours and higher pay, folks,
and we're gonna win the day, folks,
where the fraser river flows!
