[00:00.030][Monologue]
[00:21.648]	Where the Fraser river flows, each fellow worker knows,
[00:25.861]	They have bullied and oppressed us, but still our union grows.
[00:30.643]	And we’re going to find a way, boys, for shorter hours and higher pay, boys
[00:35.974]	And we’re going to win the day, boys*, where the Fraser River flows.
[00:41.022]
[00:42.146]	Fellow workers pay attention to what I’m going to mention,
[00:45.506]	For it is the clear contention of the Workers of the World.
[00:49.991]	That we should all be ready, true-hearted, brave and steady,
[00:54.764]	To rally ’round the standard when the red flag is unfurled.
[00:58.691]
[00:59.816]	Where the Fraser river flows, each fellow worker knows,
[01:04.586]	They have bullied and oppressed us, but still our union grows.
[01:09.372]	And we’re going to find a way, boys, for shorter hours and higher pay, boys
[01:14.421]	And we’re going to win the day, boys*, where the Fraser River flows.
[01:20.040]
[01:20.323]	For these gunny-sack contractors have all been dirty actors,
[01:24.534]	And they’re not our benefactors, each fellow worker knows.
[01:28.750]	So we’ve got to stick together in fine or dirty weather,
[01:33.519]	And we will show no white feather, where the Fraser River flows.
[01:37.445]
[01:38.572]	Where the Fraser river flows, each fellow worker knows,
[01:43.622]	They have bullied and oppressed us, but still our union grows.
[01:48.393]	And we’re going to find a way, boys, for shorter hours and higher pay, boys
[01:53.733]	And we’re going to win the day, boys*, where the Fraser River flows.
[01:59.063]
[02:00.462]	Now the boss the law is stretching, bulls and pimps he’s fetching,
[02:04.397]	And they are a fine collection, as Jesus only knows.
[02:08.604]	But why their mothers reared them, and why the devil spared them,
[02:13.371]	Are questions we can’t answer, where the Fraser River flows.
[02:17.859]
[02:18.981]	Where the Fraser river flows, each fellow worker knows,
[02:24.025]	They have bullied and oppressed us, but still our union grows.
[02:29.354]	And we’re going to find a way, boys*, for shorter hours and higher pay, boys8
[02:35.253]	And we’re going to win the day, boys*, where the Fraser River flows.
[02:43.118]	P.S. NOT only "boys".
