• Smiling Sid was our only hope and you gunned him down
    So we gathered from around the nation
    Made pleads to our friends in Europe
    And we received some armor
    All just to get the pay we deserve and show we won’t let you kill us and our families
    So we have gathered and are marching onto Mingo over thirteen thousand strong and growing
    Mother Johns told us to turn back but we knew what must be done
    So we have every gun we can and ever drop of gunpowder and we’ll hang Don Chafin to a sour apple tree! And we will make it to Mingo
    For they have over a hundred men under arrest without a single charge as Lively walks free
    We commrederd ever freight train to the Kentucky line
    And out line is over ten miles long

    Now as we march we hear planes flying and see them dropping bombs
    And the air force isn’t even here yet
    So where marching on to Mingo thousands of men in counting
    Our family’s are by our side to die by us as we gunned down
