About Joe Hill

"Joe Hill", also known as "I Dreamed I Saw Joe Hill Last Night", is a folk song named after the labor activist Joe Hill. It was originally written as a poem by Alfred Hayes and then composed into music by Earl Robinson in 1936. The song recounts a dream in which Joe Hill appears and claims he never died despite being framed for murder and shot by "the copper bosses." He tells the dreamer, "From San Diego up to Maine / In every mine and mill / Where workers strike and organize / It's there you'll find Joe Hill."
