I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night, alive as you and me. Says I But Joe, youre ten years dead I never died said he, I never died said he. The Copper Bosses killed you Joe, they shot you Joe they filled you full of lead. Takes more than guns to kill a man Says Joe I didnt die Says Joe I didnt die In Salt Lake City, Joe, says I, Him standing by my bed, They framed you on a murder charge, Says Joe, But I aint dead, Says Joe, But I aint dead. And standing there as big as life and smiling with his eyes. Says Joe What they can never kill went on to organize, went on to organize From San Diego up to Maine, in every mine and mill, Where working men defend their rights, its there youll find Joe Hill, its there youll find Joe Hill! I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night, alive as you and me. Says I But Joe, youre ten years dead I never died said he, I never died said he.
