Текст песни Banks of Marble (Lau) с переводом

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.

I saw the weary farmer,

Ploughing sod and loam;

I heard the auction hammer

knocking down his home.

My sisters and my brothers

Off to work this land;

I swore we’d get together,

United make a stand.

But the banks are made of marble,

With a guard at every door,

And the vaults are stuffed with silver,

That we all sweated for.

My sisters and my brothers

Off to work this land;

I swore we’d get together,

United make a stand.

We’d own those banks are made of marble,

With a guard at every door,

We’d share those vaults of silver,

That we all sweated for.

The banks are made of marble,

With a guard at every door,

And the vaults are stuffed with silver,

We all sweated for.

My sisters and my brothers

Off to work this land;

And I swore we’d get together,

United make a stand.

We’d own those banks are made of marble,

With a guard at every door,

We’d share those vaults of silver…
