"Raggedy" lyrics - PETE SEEGER
Raggedy, raggedy are we
Just as raggedy as raggedy can be
We don't get nothin' for our labor
So raggedy, raggedy are we
(Hungry!)
Hungry, hungry are we
Just as hungry as hungry can be
We don't get nothin' for our labor
So hungry, hungry are we
(Homeless!)
Homeless, homeless are we
Just as homeless as homeless can be
We don't get nothin' for our labor
So homeless, homeless are we
(Landless!)
Landless, landless are we
Just as landless as landless can be
We don't get nothin' for our labor
So landless, landless are we
(Cowless!)
Cowless, cowless are we
Just as cowless as cowless can be
We don't get nothin' for our labor
So cowless, cowless are we
So hogless, hogless are we
Hogless, hogless are we
We don't get nothin' for our labor
So hogless, hogless are we
(Union!)
Union, union are we
Just as union as union can be
We don't get nothin' for our labor
So union, union are we
(We're gonna get somethin'!)
Union, union are we
Just as union as union can be
We're gonna get somethin' from our labor
So union, union are we
