| [00:04.000] |
I've traveled round this country |
| [00:09.000] |
From shore to shining shore |
| [00:14.000] |
It really made me wonder |
| [00:19.000] |
The things I heard and saw. |
| [00:23.000] |
I saw the weary farmer |
| [00:29.000] |
Plowing sod and loam |
| [00:33.000] |
l heard the auction hammer |
| [00:38.000] |
A knocking down his home |
| [00:42.000] |
But the banks are made of marble |
| [00:47.000] |
With a guard at every door |
| [00:51.000] |
And the vaults are stuffed with silver |
| [00:56.000] |
That the farmer sweated for |
| [01:05.000] |
l saw the seaman standing |
| [01:10.000] |
Idly by the shore |
| [01:15.000] |
l heard the bosses saying |
| [01:119.000] |
Got no work for you no more |
| [01:24.000] |
But the banks are made of marble |
| [01:29.000] |
With a guard at every door |
| [01:33.000] |
And the vaults are stuffed with silver |
| [01:38.000] |
That the seaman sweated for |
| [01:47.000] |
I saw the weary miner |
| [01:51.000] |
Scrubbing coal dust from his back |
| [01:56.000] |
I heard his children cryin |
| [02:00.000] |
Got no coal to heat the shack |
| [02:05.000] |
But the banks are made of marble |
| [02:10.000] |
With a guard at every door |
| [02:14.000] |
And the vaults are stuffed with silver |
| [02:19.000] |
That the miner sweated for |
| [02:32.000] |
I've seen my brothers working |
| [02:36.000] |
Throughout this mighty land |
| [02:40.000] |
l prayed we'd get together |
| [02:45.000] |
And together make a stand |
| [02:50.000] |
Then we'd own those banks of marble |
| [02:54.000] |
With a guard at every door |
| [02:58.000] |
And we'd share those vaults of silver |
| [03:03.000] |
That we have sweated for |
