Banks of Marble Lyrics by Lau (UK)

Arc Light

0

[Verse 1]
I've travelled round this country from shore to shining shore
It really made me wonder the things I heard and saw
I saw the seaman standing idly by the shore
I heard his bosses saying
"There's no work for you no more."
[Verse 2]
I saw the weary farmer ploughing sod and loam
I heard the auction hammer knocking down his home
My sisters and my brothers all throughout this land
I swore we’d get together
United make a stand
[Chorus]
The banks are made of marble
With a guard at every door
The vaults are stuffed with silver
That we all sweated for
[Verse 3]
My sisters and my brothers all throughout this land
I swore we’d get together, united make a stand
We’d own those banks of marble, with a guard at every door
We’d share those vaults of silver
That we all sweated for
[Chorus]
The banks are made of marble
With a guard at every door
The vaults are stuffed with silver
That we all sweated for
The banks are made of marble
With a guard at every door
The vaults are stuffed with silver
That we all sweated for
[Verse 3]
My sisters and my brothers all throughout this land
I swore we’d get together, united make a stand
We’d own those banks of marble, with a guard at every door
We’d share those vaults of silver
