By Harrison George, to the tune of Hold the Fort. Written in the Cook County Jail, October 18th, 1917..

Remember

We speak to you from jail today 
Two hundred union men,
We're here because the bosses' laws 
Bring slavery again.

Chorus

In Chicago's darkened dungeons 
For the O. B. U.
Remember you're outside for us 
While we're in here for you.

We're here from mine and mill and rail 
We're here from off the sea,
From coast to coast we make the boast 
Of Solidarity.

We laugh and sing, 
we have no fear 
Our hearts are always light,
We know that every Wobbly true 
Will carry on the fight.

We make a pledge—no tyrant might 
Can make us bend the knee,
Come on, you worker, organize, 
And fight for Liberty.
