Listen to the title track on the Pete Seeger Tribute Til We Outnumber 'Em. The story is below - I guess the first time I ever heard about a union, I wasn't more than eight years old. What I heard was the story of the two rabbits. It was a he rabbit and a she rabbit that a pack of hounds was chasing all over the countryside, and finally these rabbits they holed up inside a hollow log. Outside the dogs was a-howling. The he rabbit turned to the she rabbit and he said, " Well Momma, I think we are done for." And the she rabbit, she just give him a wink and said, "Don't worry papa, we will stay here til we outnumber them." -- Woody Guthrie
