Boss comes up to me with a five-dollar bill Says, ""Get you some whiskey, boy, and drink your fill"" Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind A red-headed woman took me out to dine Says, ""Love me, baby, leave your union behind"" Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind On the Fourth of July, the politicians say ""Vote for us and we'll raise your pay"" Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind Oh, then the company union sent out a call They said, ""Join us in the summer, we'll forget you in the fall"" Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind If anyone should ask you your union to sell Just tell him where to go, send him back to hell Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind
