作詞: Joe Hill
*You will eat, by and by
In that glorious land above the sky
Work and Pray, live on hay
You'll get pie in the sky when you die
(That's a lie)
Long-haired preachers come out every night
Try to tell you what's wrong and what's right
But when asked about something to eat
They will answer with voices so sweet
Repeat *
And the starvation army they sing
While they sing and they clap and they pray
Till they get all your coin on the drum
Then they tell you that you are on the bum
Repeat *
If you fight hard for children and wife
Try to get something good in this life
You're a sinner and bad man, they tell
When you die you will surely go to hell
Workingmen of all countries unite
Side by side we for freedom will fight
When this world and its wealth we have gained
To the grafters we'll sing this refrain
You will eat, by and by
When you've learned how to cook and to fry
Chop some wood, 'twill do you good
And you'll eat in the sweet bye and bye

訳詩:管理人
*いずれ食べられるよ
あの空の上の美しい国で
働いて祈って干し草で生きるんだ
そうすれば死ぬときにパイをもらえるよ
(嘘だ)
髪の長い牧師達が毎晩現れる
何が正しく何が間違ってるか教えようとする
しかし、食べ物について聞かれたら
甘い声でこう答える
* くりかえし
飢餓の楽団が奏でる
歌って手拍子して祈りを上げる
空き缶の中に小銭が貯まると
路上生活するときはね、と言う
* くりかえし
妻と子供たちのために奮闘し
生活のために良いものを得ようとすると
お前は罪人だ、悪いやつだと言いやがる
きっと地獄へ行くぞと言いやがる
全世界の労働者よ団結せよ
隣り合って並んで自由のために戦うんだ
この世界と富は我らが得たもの
詐欺師達に向かってこの節を歌うんだ
いずれ食べられるよ
調理や揚げる方法を学べば
木を切り倒すのも役に立つ
そしていつか楽しく食べられるよ
