Union Songs

The Wal-Mart Round

A song by Mimi Yahn©Mimi Yahn 2004
(Tune: “Three Blind Mice”)

Wal-Mart sucks
Wal-Mart sucks
The life out of towns
The life out of towns
The mom and pop stores have to close their doors
And local economies fall through the floor
Yes, Wal-Mart sucks
Wal-Mart sucks.

Wal-Mart stinks
Wal-Mart stinks
Of corporate greed
Of corporate greed
They sell cheap goods made by foreign sweatshops
Where workers earn less than a dollar a day
Yes, Wal-Mart stinks
Wal-Mart stinks.

Wal-Mart blows
Wal-Mart blows
Away union jobs
Away union jobs
Good wages and benefits are nothing but lies
And they’ll fire you quick if you organize
Yes, Wal-Mart blows
Wal-Mart blows.
