Title A name given to the resource Eight Hours Song Subject The topic of the resource Knights of Labor, Labor songs, sabre, Eight Hour Day, eight hours, union, unionism, Trade Union, Trade Unionism, labour, labourer, work, worker, working class, unions, Felix McLaren Description An account of the resource Working or labour songs were a feature of nineteenth century (and later) union gatherings and processions. The songs and communal singing evoke peasant or folk traditions. The song gives the workers the high-ground because they resort to moral rather than bellicose means to gain the Eight Hours Day. They are proud to declare they did not shed blood for their ‘crown’. Transliteration from Trove [HH] All hail to the Knights of Labor! All hail to the Eight Hours Day! Far better than wielding the sabre, Is your peaceful and grand display. Your banners float proudly over To tell how your cause was won Since the time when your day would cover From rising to setting sun. But do not forget you have brothers Who toll in the midnight’s gloom, Or sisters, perchance, or others Who are wasting their youthful bloom; Who sweat when they world is sleeping, To win starvation’s meat, With no relief save weeping – Their lot is hard indeed. All hail to our glorious Union! Success to the A.M.A.! That fought like brave and true men Till they gained the Eight Hours Day. No sanguine conflict marred the strife, ‘Twas moral force alone That gained the glorious victory That might adorn a throne.
