This song was written in 2010. The last verse was added in December 2025.

We SING today for dignity for EACH and everyone,
WORKERS must have justice, no MATTER where they’re from,
It TAKES us all to build a nation strong,
A PLACE we all belong.

IMmigrants deserve our thanks and THEY deserve good pay.
They DO the jobs that no one wants and WORK hard night and day,
It TAKES us all to build a nation strong,
A PLACE we all belong.

WORKERS must be left in peace to LIVE life unafraid,
No HUMAN is illegal; STOP the racist raids!
It TAKES us all to build a nation strong,
A PLACE we all belong.

And NOW when ICE invades our towns, we GRANnies take a stand
And FACE these fascist terrorists together hand in hand.
So WE can build a nation undiVIded, kind, and strong,
A PLACE we all belong.
