It's not a conjunction.  It's an archaic language component.

						Glotmorf
Archaic or not, it's still a conjunction-- that's its part of speech, like 
'and' or 'but'.  It conjoins two distinct phrases together into one 
sentence.  Didn't you ever get to watch Schoolhouse Rock as a kid?  
[[Conjunction Junction, what's your function?  etc. :)]]
