CHORUS:
|
Hey here comes Joe now running down the street, hey Joe!
|
He must have news the way he moves his feet, hey Joe!
|
He's coming from the meeting with the boss, hey Joe!
|
I hope they didn't throw him for a loss, hey Joe!
|
He must have news about the strike, I wonder what it's like.
|
Hey Joe! Hey Joe! Hey Joe, don't be so slow!
|
Tell us, Joe! Spill it, Joe! Joe, what do you know?
|
|
JOE:
|
What do I know?
|
I ain't heard as good news since Lord knows when,
|
For the strike is over, boys,
|
Back to work again!
|
|
CHORUS:
|
Yeah!
|
|
JOE:
|
The fighting's through now,
|
There's no more fuss
|
For the strike is over, boys,
|
Back to work for us!
|
|
CHORUS:
|
Yeah!
|
|
JOE:
|
We gave a little, and we took a little.
|
It was quite a fight but things came out all right!
|
Shout to the rafters, let yourselves go.
|
For the striking all is done, let's have fun,
|
The day is won, back to work we go!
|
|
CHORUS:
|
Yeah!
|
Back to work again!
|
Back to work for us! JOE:
|
We gave a little, and we took a little. We gave and we took--
|
It was quite a fight It was quite a fight
|
|
JOE:
|
But things came out all right!
|
Shout to the rafters, let yourselves go.
|
For the striking all is done,
|
|
JOE and CHORUS:
|
Let's have fun,
|
The day is won, back to work we go!
|
Back to work, Joe!
|
Back to work, Joe!
|
Back to work we go!
