lyrics

Labor makes the world run

3/13/11
chorus:
Labor makes the world run, labor runs the world
c'mon now sing it loud every boy and girl
labor makes the world run, makes it spin around-
wealth comes from the working class, it doesn't trickle down

it's in the interest of the few
to make the rest believe
the rich all got where they are
by rollin' up their sleeves
it was the sleeves of other arms
that built those pyramids
and every rich man rests upon
the work that others did

rpt. chorus

Now fightin wars in other lands
will never keep us free
it's a dirty pair of hands
that builds prosperity
if you like running water and electricity
and roads to get around on,
it's not too hard to see..

Labor makes the world run, labor runs the world
cmon now sing it loud every boy and girl
labor makes the world run, makes it spin around-
wealth comes from the working class, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND..
