The Dubliners feat. Luke Kelly - Joe Hill Lyrics

Lyrics Joe Hill - The Dubliners , Luke Kelly



I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night
Alive as you and me
Says I, but Joe you′re ten years dead
"I never died, says he,
"I never died," says he.
"In Salt Lake City, Joe," says I
Him standing by my side
"They framed you on a murder charge,"
Says Joe, "I never died,"
Says Joe, "I never died."
"The copper bosses, they shot you, Joe."
"They filled you full of lead."
"Takes more than guns to kill a man,"
Says Joe, "and I ain't dead,"
Says Joe, "and I ain′t dead."
And standing there as big as life
And smiling with his eyes,
Says Joe, "What they forgot to 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,
It's there you'll find Joe Hill,
It′s there you′ll find Joe Hill.
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night
Alive as you and me.
Says I, "But Joe, you're ten years dead."
"I never died," says he,
"I never died," says he.
