Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Oh, we're standing here together,
One for all and all for one;
And we'll keep right on here standing
Till our victory we have won,
We're united in our struggle,
No, there's none us can divide
We'll yield nothing to the enemy
'Cos we've justice on our side.
Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Hold that line against the bosses
When they try to drive us back,
Hold that line against the coppers
And their armed baton attacks,
Hold that line against the government,
'Gainst all enemies of our class,
And hold that line against the scabs too,
No, we'll never let them pass.
Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Oh, we're standing with the millions
Who before us all have fought,
And we're standing with the martyred ones
Whose lives our rights have bought.
But there's more room yet beside us,
If you'd come and join our cause,
For the chains that now enslave you,
They are all you stand to lose.
Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Oh, we're standing here together,
One for all and all for one;
And we'll keep right on here standing
Till our victory we have won,
We're united in our struggle,
No, there's none us can divide
We'll yield nothing to the enemy
'Cos we've justice on our side.
Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Hold that line against the bosses
When they try to drive us back,
Hold that line against the coppers
And their armed baton attacks,
Hold that line against the government,
'Gainst all enemies of our class,
And hold that line against the scabs too,
No, we'll never let them pass.
Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Oh, we're standing with the millions
Who before us all have fought,
And we're standing with the martyred ones
Whose lives our rights have bought.
But there's more room yet beside us,
If you'd come and join our cause,
For the chains that now enslave you,
They are all you stand to lose.
Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
Hold that line!
Hold that line!
Sisters, brothers, never weaken,
Stand and hold that picket line!
