[Verse 1]

Come all of you good workers

Good news to you I'll tell

Of how the good ol' union

Has come in here to dwell

[Chorus]

Which side are you on?

Which side are you on?

[Verse 2]

My daddy was a miner

And I'm a miner's son

And I'll stick with the union

'Til every battle's won

[Chorus]

Which side are you on?

Which side are you on?

[Verse 3]

They say in Harlan County

There are no neutrals there

You'll either be a union man

Or a thug for J. H. Blair

[Chorus]

Which side are you on?

Which side are you on?

[Verse 4]

Oh, workers can you stand it?

Oh, tell me how you can

Will you be a lousy scab

Or will you be a man?

[Chorus]

Which side are you on?

Which side are you on?

[Verse 5]

Don't scab for the bosses

Don't listen to their lies

Us poor folks haven't got a chance

Unless we organize

[Chorus]

Which side are you on?

Which side are you on?

Which side are you on?

Which side are you on?
