I hate the capitalist system
I’ll tell you the reason why
They caused me so much suffering
And my dearest friends to die<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My husband was a coal-miner
He worked and risked his life
To try to support three children
himself, his mother and wife<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, oh, com’on tell the truth
Oh, oh, com’on tell the truth<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the darling of my heart
but from my little darling
her mother had to part<\/p>\n\n\n\n
they dress in jewels and silk
But my darling, blue-eyed baby
she starved to death for milk<\/p>\n\n\n\n
for her I often cried
But with these rotten conditions
my mother had to die<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to them I guess it’s true
but that’s to the rich old capitalists
Not workers like me and you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oh, what can you do about it
to these men of power and might
I tell you Mr. Capitalist
I’m going to fight, fight, fight
yes, I’m gonna fight, fight, fight<\/p>\n\n\n\n
