Lyrics

[00:12] I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night,
[00:17] alive as you and me.
[00:20] Says I “But Joe, you’re ten years dead”
[00:24] “I never died” says he,
[00:29] “I never died” says he.
[00:36] “In Salt Lake City, Joe,” says I,
[00:39] Him standing by my bed,
[00:43] “They framed you on a murder charge,”
[00:47] Says Joe, “I never died”
[00:52] Says Joe, “I never died”
[01:00] “The Copper Bosses killed you Joe,
[01:03] they shot you Joe” says I.
[01:07] “Takes more than guns to kill a man”
[01:11] Says Joe “But I ain’t dead”
[01:15] Says Joe “But I ain’t dead”
[01:30] And standing there as big as life
[01:35] and smiling with his eyes.
[01:38] Says Joe “What they forgot to kill
[01:43] went on to organize,
[01:47] went on to organize”
[01:51] In San Diego up to Maine,
[01:58] in every mine and mill,
[02:02] Where working men defend their right,
[02:07] it’s there you’ll find Joe Hill,
[02:11] it’s there you’ll find Joe Hill!
[02:15] I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night,
[02:21] alive as you and me.
[02:24] Says I “But Joe, you’re ten years dead”
[02:30] “I never died” says he,
[02:33] “I never died” says he.
