The Union - Zark Behida

When we were kids, We'd throw rocks at cars, And smoke our mother's cigarettes, After dark, in the park, And I remember picking butts up off the Dirty ground. Smoking them just the same as Ma's When we ran out.

No, I'd never join the union, 'Cause I'd never wanted it easy. There's a pretty little city tower, In Alberta to see, And the little yellow house, Falling down on English Street.

I can't change it, I am a dirty, Rock 'n' Roller. And I'd never join the union, 'Cause I never wanted it easy. Hell, I'd never join the union, 'Cause I never wanted it easy. That I'd never, No, I'd never, No, I'd never join, That I'd never, No, I'd never, No, I'd never join, That I'd never join the union, 'Cause I never wanted it easy. Hey!
