Comeall ye who work like brothers,Come from store, from shop, from hall,Pass the watchword to the others,Don’t you hear our rallying call?Freedom for our Western prairies,Freedom to Pacific’s shores,Freedom gave our land to freemen,Free it shall be evermore.Rally once more round the banner,In the fight be true and strong,Keeping step with freemen’s music,With one voice we’ll shout our song—Freedom, etc.Let the past be now forgotten,While sweet Freedom’s foes we rout;All we ask of each one coming,Vote for Freedom, work and shout—Freedom, etc.Have you heard from old New Hampshire,How the strikers struck up there;Dealing deadly blows to Slavery,Singing in the evening air—Freedom, etc.Then Connecticut right noblyNext sustained the glorious fight,Conquered all the foes of Freedom,Shouting till the morning light—Freedom, etc.Shall the Empire State be wantingWhen the others stand so true?Then, let each one do his duty,Work there is, for us and you.Freedom, etc.Come, then, Freemen, come and join us,You who never came before,All we ask is, vote for Freedom,Till it reigns from shore to shore.Freedom, etc.W.
