Joe Hill

Verse I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night, Alive as you and me. Says I, "But Joe, you're ten years dead" "I never died," says he, "I never died," says he. "In Salt Lake, Joe," by god says I, Him standing by my bed, "They framed you on a murder charge." Says Joe, "But I ain't dead," Says Joe, "But I ain't dead." "The copper bosses shot you Joe, They killed you Joe," says I. "Takes more than guns to kill a man," Says Joe, "I didn't die." Says Joe, "I didn't die." Standing there as big as life, Smiling with his eyes. Joe says, "What they forgot to kill" Went on to organize, Went on to organize!" "Joe Hill ain't dead," he says to me "Joe Hill ain't never died." Where working men go out on strike, Joe Hill is at their side, Joe Hill is at their side. From San Diego up to Maine In every mine and mill Where working men go out on strike Says he "You'll find Joe Hill," Says he "You'll find Joe Hill." I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night, Alive as you and me. Says I, "But Joe, you're ten years dead" "I never died," says he, "I never died," says he.
