PICKET SIGN
Stonewall Jackson

Chorus:
D
Everybody stand up and holler for the union 
                            A7
let's give the brother's a cheer
D
Everybody stand up and holler for the union 
               A7       D 
I ain't hit a lick all year

D
Worked in the mill and I worked on the dock 
                           A7
I worked for the railroad lines
D
Before I hit a lick under union scale 
       A7               D
I'll carry this picket sign  

Repeat Chorus

D
Money's all gone and I'll admit 
                         A7
got holes in both of my shoes
D
But I'm still a smokin' this big cigar 
     A7              D   
and payin' my union dues

Repeat Chorus

(Advance  Step To D#)

D#
Lived on boloney nearly all of my life 
                       Bb 
a waitin' for a higher wage
D#
I never had a taste of a t-bone steak 
           Bb               D# 
cause the steer ain't union made

D#
Too old to work too broke to quit 
                              Bb
when I get to the end of the line
D#
I may walk into a pauper's grave 
          Bb                D#
but I'll carry this picket sign

Repeat Chorus

(Advance  Step To E)

E
Everybody stand up and holler for the union 
                            B7
let's give the brother's a cheer
D
Everybody stand up and holler for the union 
               B7       D 
I ain't hit a lick all year
