We are free [G] agents!
Pulitzer and [C] Hearst, they think [G] they got us!
Do they got [C] us?

[C] We're a union now.
The [D] Newsboy [C] Union, and we [D] made them do [Eb] this!
Even [Em] though we ain't [B] got hats [Em] or badges,
[D] we're [G] a union [C] just [F] by [B] saying so! _
[C] And the [D] world_
[E] _ Why don't you stop some of the kids coming along to sell our page?
I'm just [C] letting them try!
_ We cannot [D] beat up on other kids.
[E] We're all in this together.
What's it gonna take to stop the wagons?
Are we ready?
[A] [B] Yeah!
[G] What's it gonna take to stop the scabbers?
Can we do [C] it?

[B] To [Em] the world we gotta [B] go [Em] until [D] we break [G] the will [C] of [F] Mighty [B] Bill and Joe.
[C] And the [Bm] world_
[E] _ _ [Am] And the [G] journal_
Mr.
Hurst [C] and [Bm] Pulitzer, [Em] rep, we [D] got [G] news for you.
See the world [E] don't know [D] what they're [G] gonna pay.
Instead of [C] hawking [B] headlines, we'll [Em] be [D] making of [G] today.
_ And our ranks [C] will grow.
And we'll kick [F] their beats. Yeah!
And the world [B] will know that we've [E] been here. _
When that circulation bell starts ringing, will we hear [A] it?
No!
[B]
[G] When the dut-da-lanchies come out swinging, will we hear [C] it?
No!
[B] When you [Eb] got a hundred voices singing, [D] who [G] can hear [C] our loud, [F] deepest, [B] old love?
_ _ [C] _ [D] _ [E] _ _
[G] And this ain't no game.
That we got [C] a ton [Bm] of private [Em] fruit [D] and [G] perfect game.
So they gave [E] them word.
[G] Well, it ain't worth beans.
Now they're gone [C] and seen [Bm] what's stopped the [Em] presses.
[D] When they [G] leave these, then the old [C] will be.
And go back [F] to sleep.
And we got [G] no choice but to see it through.

_ [F] _ _
[Em] _ [E] _ _ [F] Yeah!
[E] Pulitzer [A] may own the [Gm] world, but [C] he don't own us.
Pulitzer may own the world, but he don't own us.
[Em] Pulitzer [Am] may grip the [B] whip, but [E] he won't whip us.
Pulitzer may back the whip, but he won't whip us.
And [G] the world will [A] know [F] [G] we've been here [C] to score.
Either they [F] gives us [Em] our rights [Am] or we [G] give them [C] a war.
_ [Em] We've been down [A] too long, [C] and we've paid our dues.
And the things [Em] we do today [Am] will be [G]
[C] tomorrow's news.
_ And the guided [F] _ pass, and the [Bb] torches pass.
And the road [A] will be a whole new road.
[E] And so [F] the [Em] world will [A] feel [Am] the fire [E] and_ _ _ _ _

[B] And our luck goes down.
Every [E] day we play is a [A] day we learn.
And this [Abm] ain't for fun, and it ain't for show.
We'll fight and show.
And so the [Ebm] world [Abm] will [Ebm] feel [E] the fire [Db] and_
