1. You gotta go down and join the union
You gotta go join it by yourself
Nobody here can join it for you
You gotta go down and join the union by yourself

2. Your brother's gotta go down and join the union / He's gotta...
3. Your sister's gotta go down...
4. I'm gonna go down...
5. And when the road gets rough and rocky
And the hills get steep and high
We can sing as we go marching
And we'll win our big union by and by
