Biografía:
Evan Greer is twenty-something years old and lives somewhere between the Greyhound bus and your couch. Equally at home leading singalongs in a union hall or sweating in a basement punk show, her lyrically driven and energetic songs speak to radicals and hellraisers of all generations. Her powerful voice and presence often lead her to leave the microphone and stage and stand facing the crowd with nothing but an acoustic guitar and a whole lot of passion.

The Picketline Song -- Evan Greer
Chords are the same the whole way through!
(chorus)
G C G
oh i would never walk across a picket line
D
solidarity forever don't mean just sometimes
G
so long live the union!
C G
cross my heart and hope to die
G Em D G
if I should ever walk across a picket line
well my mother never told me
what was right or what was wrong
she never taught me to play guitar
never taught me to write songs
but one thing that she taught me
i'll remember for all time
and that's that you should never walk
across a picket line
(chorus)
she took me to a factory where the workers were on strike
the company had called in scabs to break the union's might
my mum went to the front and addressed those greedy swine
sayin' “i dare any of you men to walk across this picket line!”
(chorus)
well one of them came forward and he had something to say:
“no woman will stand between me and one day's pay!
i don't care 'bout the others i am taking what is mine”
and with that he tried to walk across our picket line
(chorus)
mom called him a dirty scab, gave him two pieces of her mind
she picked up and she threw every rock that she could find
and when he called the cops on her she kicked his behind
sayin' “that's what you get when you walk across a union's picket line!”
(chorus)
well to this day i can remember what my momma used to say:
“we're fighting for a better world, not just for better pay
and if we stick together then we'll win this fight in time
so long as we don't walk across each other's picket lines”
