The Ballad of Joe Hill Lyrics
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night
Alive as you or me
Says I, But Joe, you`re ten years deadI never died, says he
I never died, says he
In Salt Lake, Joe, says I to him
Him standing by my bed
They framed you on a murder charge
Says Joe, But I ain`t dead
Says Joe, But I ain`t dead
The copper bosses killed you, Joe
They shot you, Joe, says I
Takes more than guns to kill a man
Says Joe, I didn`t die
Says Joe, I didn`t die
And standing there as big as life
And smiling with his eyes
Joe says, What they forgot to kill
Went on to organize
Went on to organize
Joe Hill ain`t dead, he says to me
Joe Hill ain`t never died
Where working men are out on strike
Joe Hill is at their side
Joe Hill is at their side
From San Diego up to Maine
In every mine and mill
Where workers strike and organize
Says he, You`ll find Joe Hill

Says he, You`ll find Joe Hill
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night
Alive as you or me
Says I, But Joe, you`re ten years dead
I never died, says he
I never died, says he
