One Big Union For Two

(albüm: Pins And Needles - 1962)

[HE:]
I've decided the only way I can woo
Is to take a hint from the AFFL and The CIO
[SHE:]
Now you're talking, perhaps I might listen to you
I don't say that I'll yes,
But don't say I'll say no
[HE:]
Then it's not too late to negotiate
[SHE:]
Oh, well, we'll see
[BOTH:]
Perhaps we can agree
[HE:]
I'm on a campaign to make you mine
I'll picket you until you sign
In one big union for two
No courts and junction can make me stop
Until your love is all closed shop
In one big union for two
Seven days a week I want the right
To call you mine both day and night
The hours may be long
But fifty million union members can't be wrong
[SHE:]
When we have joined up perhaps there'll be
A new recruit or two or three
For that's what team work can do
[BOTH:]
In one big union for two
[SHE:]
We won't have sit-downs inside our gate
We'll never need to arbitrate
In one big union for two
[HE:]
We will have no lock-outs to make us frown
No stabbing when I'm out of town
In one big union for two
[SHE:]
Will you pay your dues,
They're very light
A kiss each day
And a kiss each night
Our life will be a song
For..
[BOTH:]
Fifty million union members can't be wrong
[HE:]
When we have signed up and made the grade
We'll let a member
[SHE:]
Union made
[BOTH:]
Who looks like me and like you
In one big union for two

What's to be done with 'em tell me in rhythm

Sing me a song with social significance
there's nothing else that will do
It must be tense with common sense
or I won't love you.
