BioWe have fed you all for a thousand years
And you hail us still unfed,
Though there's never a dollar of all your wealth
But marks the workers dead.
We have yielded our best to give you rest
And you lie on crimson wool.
Then if blood be the price of all your wealth,
Good God! We have paid in full!
There is never a mine blown skyward now
But we're buried alive for you.
There's never a wreck drifts shoreward now
But we are its ghastly crew.
Go and reckon our dead by the forges red
And the factories where we spin.
Then if blood be the price of your cursed wealth,
Good God! We have paid it in!
We have fed you all a thousand years-
For that was our doom, you know,
From the days when you chained us in your fields
To the strike of a week ago.
You have taken our lives, and our husbands and wives,
And called it your legal share,
Then if blood be the price of your lawful wealth,
Good God! We have bought it fair!
And you hail us still unfed,
Though there's never a dollar of all your wealth
But marks the workers dead.
We have yielded our best to give you rest
And you lie on crimson wool.
Then if blood be the price of all your wealth,
Good God! We have paid in full!
There is never a mine blown skyward now
But we're buried alive for you.
There's never a wreck drifts shoreward now

Good God! We have bought it fair!
