														   JOE HILL

 Joan Baez

 

 I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night alive as you
and me.

 Said I, "But Joe, you're ten years dead",

 "I never died", said he.

 "I never died", said he.

 

 "In Salt Lake, Joe", I said to him standing by
my bed,

 "they framed you on a murder charge."

 Says Joe: "But I ain't dead!"  (2x)

 

 "The Cooper Bosses shot you, Joe, they killed
you, Joe", says I.

 "Takes more than guns to kill a man", says Joe,
"I didn't die!"

 

 And standing there as big as life and smiling
with his eyes,

 Joe says: "What they could never kill went on to
organize."

 

 "Joe Hill ain't dead", he says to me, "Joe Hill
ain't never died,

 when workers strike and organize Joe Hill is by
their side."

 

 From San Diego up to Maine in every mine and
mill,

 where workers stand up for their rights,

 it's there you'll find Joe Hill.

 

 I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night alive as you
and me.

 Said I, "But Joe, you're ten years dead","I
never died", said he.

 

 (Heyes/Robinson)
