It's Better with a Union Man

It's Better with a Union Man - Rose Marie Jun/Jack Carroll/Barbra Streisand (芭芭拉·史翠珊)

Oh listen to the story we sing you

Of everything that came to pass

To Bertha the sewing machine girl

A winsome and class conscious lass

As sweet as the flower is in Springtime

She worked at the men's pants machine

Her sweetheart close by at another

While union love blossomed serene

One day little Bertha was sewing

Not knowing that danger was near

Our villain aspired her

And paused there beside her

An union man with a lip

Oh it's better with a union man

It's better with a union man

You'll live to regret if you ever forget

This motto proletarian

So always be upon your guard

Demand to see a union card

You'll never go wrong

If you follow this plan

It's better with a union man

Poor sweet innocent little Bertha

She did not suspect that this guy

Contrary to all union by laws

Had six other wives on the sly

While Bertha was sewing her wild oats

Midst black caviar and champagne

Her true union lover was waiting

At local sixteen all in vain

Alas she forgot all the pre sets

Which for working girls are correct

That nine union cad

He was thoroughly bad

He did just what you all would expect

Oh it's better with a union man

It's better with a union man

You'll live to regret if you ever forget

This motto proletarian

So always be upon your guard

Demand to see a union card

You'll never go wrong

If you follow this plan

It's better with a union man
