WE'LL HAVE A MAY DAY

(by Matt McGinn)

WE'LL HAVE A MAY DAY
I have friends in London town, the finest ever seen
And I have some in Swansea and I've some in Aberdeen
    We're all Labour good and true, 
      and I'll tell you what we're going to do
    We're going to fight this fight right through 
      and we'll have a May Day then

	We'll have a May Day -- My, O My!
	  O, we'll have a May Day then
	We'll have a May Day -- My, O My!
	  O, we'll have a May Day then

Back in '45 they marched, from barrack room and mill
Determined they would make a change, for they had had their fill
    From the kitchen sink and coal they came, 
      every Labour man and dame
    And shortly we'll be doing the same 
      and we'll have a May Day then

	We'll have...
	
Our faithers fought this fight before, and thought that they had won
You should have seen the boss turn green and how the man could run
    But when our faithers turned their backs, 
      the boss came again to dodge his tax
    But the next time we'll no be so lax 
      and we'll have a May Day then

	We'll have...

They're never ever satisfied, though millions they have made
But still they think that you and I are grossly overpaid
    There's nothing that they widnae steal, 
      they even grudge your kids a meal
    But very soon you'll hear them squeal 
      and we'll have a May Day then

	We'll have...

We'll join in jubilation and the big brass band you'll hear
As we march on in triumph to the future with a cheer
    But as we greet the newborn day, 
      the piper he'll have a tune to play
    A lament for the sharks that are on their way 
      and we'll have a May Day then

	We'll have...
