Banks of Marble - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]

Written by：rice[00:00:00]

I've traveled around this country[00:00:04]

From shore to shining shore[00:00:09]

It really made me wonder[00:00:14]

The things I heard and saw[00:00:19]

I saw the weary farmer[00:00:24]

I plowing sod and loam[00:00:28]

I heard the auction hammer[00:00:33]

Just a knockin' down his home[00:00:37]

But the banks are made of marble[00:00:42]

With a guard at every door[00:00:47]

And the vaults are stuffed with silver[00:00:51]

That the farmer sweated for[00:00:56]

I see the seaman standing[00:01:05]

Idly by the shore[00:01:10]

And I heard the voices sayin'[00:01:14]

Got no work fer you no more[00:01:19]

But the banks are made of marble[00:01:24]

With a guard at every door[00:01:28]

And the vaults are stuffed with silver[00:01:33]

That the seaman sweated for[00:01:38]

I've seen the weary miner[00:01:47]

Scrubbin' coal dust from his back[00:01:51]

And I heard his children crying[00:01:56]

Got no coal to heat the shack[00:02:00]

But the banks are made of marble[00:02:05]

With a guard at every door[00:02:10]

And the vaults are stuffed with silver[00:02:14]

That the miner sweated for[00:02:19]

I see my brothers working[00:02:31]

Throughout this mighty land[00:02:36]

I pray we'd get together[00:02:40]

And together make a stand[00:02:45]

Then we might own those banks of marble[00:02:49]

With a guard at every door[00:02:54]

And we would share those vaults of silver[00:02:58]

That we have sweated for[00:03:03]
