Fact: The Closed Shop - Barclay James Harvest

Born a poor worker's son

Taught to fight for all his rights

Life for him is just begun

Union might is the leading light

It's a shame and it's a sin

They don't know the mood they're in

Until they strike for what is right

Not what has been

Shop floor that's where he's at

Back to back bring out the rack

Squeeze them till they retract

Wield the gun see how they run

It's a shame and it's a sin

They don't know the mood they're in

Until they strike for what is right

Not what has been

All out for freedom all out for more

Show them we mean it tell them the score

Brother for brother that's what we're for

Don't give us your reasons

Our reason has gone out the door

Born a poor worker's son

Taught to fight for all his rights

Life for him is just begun

Union might is the leading light

It's a shame and it's a sin

They don't know the mood they're in

Until they strike for what is right

Not what has been
