C                                   C7 
Oh, we worked and we fought for the little that's ours 
          G7                G 
And we're not gonna give it back 
      G                    G7 
While you ride around in a Rolls Royce car 
                            C 
And we're not gonna give it back 
          C7                                             C 
You take away our bread and butter while you're drinking wine 
        F                                    F7 
And you send out the cops against the picket line 
    G                     G7 
You tried it before but I swear this time 
      G7                C 
We're not gonna give it back 


C                          C7 
No we're not gonna give it back 
      C                 G7 
We're not gonna give it back 
                        G 
We're not gonna give it back, no fear 
      G7                C 
We're not gonna give it back 


Well, you want our wages and our benefits too 
But we're not gonna give it back 
To make less for us and more for you 
And we're not gonna give it back 
Your profits are higher than they've ever been 
The economy's a mess 'cos you're greedy as sin 
And you never will care what shape we're in 
And we're not gonna give it back 

Chorus 

We won the right to bargain and the right to strike 
And we're not gonna give it back 
Now you think you can cancel them whenever you like 
And we're not gonna give it back 
Listen while I tell you 'bout the rich and poor 
It's what my momma told me all about the class war 
And it's mighty plain to see what the union's for 
And we're not gonna give it back 

Chorus 

It's the same old story 'bout the wealthy few 
Getting rich off the worker's back 
You divide us up by giving jobs to two 
While another two get the sack 
Up to now you've had your ride for free 
But we'll put a picket line around the whole country 
And we'll set up a banner for the world to see 
That says you're never gonna get it back 

End-Chorus x 2: 
No you're never gonna get it back 
You're never gonna get it back 
You're never gonna get it back, no fear 
You're never gonna get it back
