dust for blood - don mclean lyrics
[verse 1]
work my hands in the soil
what’s the pay for all the toil?
[chorus]
dust for blood
dust for blood
dust for blood
[verse 2]
throw the grapes, pick the trees
build the bridges on the seas
harvest cotton on my knees
[chorus]
dust for blood
dust for blood
dust for blood
[bridge]
dig the diamonds, dig the coal
broken windows, broken souls
bitter tears and bitter cold
before my years i’m growin’ old
hammer steel, hammer ring
cut the timber, buzzsaw sings
build the highway for the king
but all i get’s the same old thing
[chorus]
dust for blood
dust for blood
dust for blood
[guitar solo]
[verse 3]
workin’ man toil in vain
what’s the pay for all the pain?
[chorus]
dust for blood
dust for blood
dust for blood
[verse 4]
the dust will swirl, the dust will blow
dust is all i’ll ever know
my body to the dust will go
[chorus]
dust for blood
dust for blood
dust for blood
