  • Verse 1
    For the 

    fired 
    auto 
    workers 

    Who were 
    twisted, 
    tricked 
    and 
    robbed 

    To the 
    peasant 
    in 
    Guatemala 

    In 
    a sweatshop 
    got 
    your 
    job 

    And she 
    can't 
    feed 
    her family 

    On the 
    pennies 
    that 
    she 
    makes 

    Meanwhile 
    the crime 
    rate's rising 

    Verse 2
    Up 
    and down 
    the Great 
    Lake 
    states 


    Like 
    vegetables 
    left 
    in 
    the field 

    The signatures 
    smell 
    rotten 

    On the 
    contracts 
    and 
    the deeds 

    That 
    push 
    the 
    race 
    down 
    to 
    the bottom 

    As they 
    load 
    the 
    rubber 
    bullets 

    As they fire 
    another 
    round 

    I'm 
    heading 
    into 
    the 
    tear 
    gas 

    Dig 
    in man, 
    hold 
    your ground 

    Verse 3
    For 
    Joe 
    Hill 
    and Caesar 
    Chavez 

    Who fought 
    in their 
    own 
    time 

    For 
    our 
    brothers 
    and 
    our sisters 

    Up 
    and down 
    that 
    picket 
    line 

    For the 
    unnamed 

    and unnumbered 

    Who struggle 
    brave 
    and long 

    For 
    the 
    union 
    men 
    and 
    women 

    Verse 4
    Standing 
    up 
    and standing 
    strong 


    Si 
    nos 
    quedemos 

    Juntos vamos 
    ganar? Si! 

    Hit em 
    where 
    it 
    hurts 

    And 
    bite 
    the hand 
    that 
    feeds 

    You might 
    get 
    one 
    to three 

    Or 
    probation 
    and 
    a fine 

    But I know 
    where I'm 
    gonna 
    be 

    I'm gonna 
    be right 
    on that 
    front 
    line 

    Verse 5
    For 
    Joe 
    Hill 
    and Caesar 
    Chavez 

    Who fought 
    in their 
    own 
    time 

    For 
    our 
    brothers 
    and 
    our sisters 

    Up and 
    down 
    that 
    picket 
    line 

    For the 
    unnamed 

    and unnumbered 

    Who struggle 
    brave 
    and long 

    For 
    the 
    union 
    men 
    and 
    women 

    Interlude 1
    Standing 
    up 
    and standing 
    strong 




    Verse 6
    Now 
    dirty 
    scabs 
    will 
    cross 
    the 
    line 

    While 
    others 
    stand 
    aside 
    and 
    look 

    But 
    ain't 
    nobody 
    never 
    got 
    nothin' 

    That 
    didn't 
    raise 
    their voice 
    and 
    push 

    Like 
    the steel 
    worker 
    in 
    Ohio 

    The miner 
    in 
    West 
    Virginia 

    The teacher 
    in 
    Chicago 

    Janitor 
    in 
    Mississippi 

    From the 
    sweatshops 
    of 
    L.A. 

    To 
    the fields 
    of 
    Mission 
    Flats 

    There's 
    a thunder 
    cloud 
    exploding 

    And I'm 
    free 
    at 
    last 

    Verse 7
    Like 
    Joe 
    Hill 
    and 
    Caesar 
    Chavez 

    Who fought 
    in their 
    own 
    time 

    Like 
    our 
    brothers 
    and 
    our sisters 

    Up 
    and down 
    that 
    picket 
    line 

    Like the 
    unnamed 

    and unnumbered 

    Who struggle 
    brave 
    and long 

    Like 
    the union 
    men 
    and 
    women 

    Standing 
    up 
    and standing 

    Outro 1
    strong

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
