Tips from the gaggle
- Read the lyrics through once silently before singing.
- If the original tune is unfamiliar, look it up first.
- Modify freely. Every gaggle adapts songs to local issues.
SING IT to the tune of When the Saints Come Marching In
When workers rise and organize
When workers rise and organize,
How I want to be in the number,
When workers rise and organize.
Variations:
When the union’s voice is heard…
When women’s work gets equal pay…
When trade is local, green and fair…
When WTO has been replaced…
