| I've traveled around this country | |
| From shore to shining shore; | |
| It really made me wonder, | |
| The things I heard and saw. | |
| I saw the weary farmer | |
| Plowing his sod and loam; | |
| I heard the auction hammer | |
| Just a-knockin' down his home. | |
| But the banks are made of marble, | |
| With a guard at every door, | |
| And the vaults are stuffed with silver | |
| That the farmer sweated for. | |
| I saw the weary miner | |
| Scrubbin' coal dust from his back; | |
| And I heard his children crying, | |
| "We've got no coal to heat the shack." | |
| But the banks are made of marble, | |
| With a guard at every door, | |
| And the vaults are stuffed with silver | |
| That the miner sweated for. | |
| I saw the seaman standing | |
| Idly by the shore; | |
| And I heard the owner sayin', | |
| "Got no work fer you no more." | |
| But the banks are made of marble, | |
| With a guard at every door, | |
| And the vaults are stuffed with silver | |
| That the seaman sweated for. | |
| I see my brothers working | |
| Throughout this mighty land. | |
| And I pray we'd get together, | |
| And together make a stand. | |
| Then we'd own those banks of marble, | |
| With a guard at every door. | |
| And we'd share those vaults of silver | |
| That we have sweated for. |
