Utah Phillips - Joe Hill lyrics

Artist: Utah Phillips

album: We Have Fed You All a Thousand Years


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, Joe, great God' says I, him standing by my bed
They framed you on a murder charge
Says Joe 'But I ain't dead,' says Joe 'But I ain't dead'
'The copper bosses they framed you Joe they shot you Joe,' says I
Takes more than guns to kill a man
Says Joe 'I did not die', says Joe 'I did not die'
And standing there just as big as life smiling with his eyes
Says he 'What they forgot to kill'
'Went on the organise, went on to organise'
From San Diego on up to Maine in every mine and mill
Where workers strike and organise
Says he 'You'll find Joe Hill,' says he '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
