[00:15.85]He can knock down the wall
[00:18.23]Build it up strong
[00:20.10]Set the flagstones in a path
[00:23.36]With a nail and a hammer
[00:25.92]Barrow and saw
[00:27.73]See about the hole in the roof
[00:31.35]And the gathered all breathe
[00:33.73]A sigh of relief
[00:35.23]At completion of a well-laid plan
[00:39.24]It's wearing the day long
[00:41.54]And breaking the skin
[00:43.11]In the palms of the workingman's hands
[00:47.42]
[00:52.85]Let the tool do the work
[00:54.92]Pull and don't push
[00:56.92]Drag that wagon over the hill
[01:00.73]Measure twice and cut once  son
[01:02.99]Clear the felled brush
[01:04.80]Edge around the gardens and walks
[01:08.48]On a shiny John Deere
[01:10.92]Will he reappear
[01:12.23]With a power drill and a paintbrush
[01:14.92]And a chip on his shoulder
[01:18.48]As wide as a barn
[01:20.17]And as hard as the workingman's hands
[01:23.42]
[01:26.04]Now your Uncle John walked
[01:28.18]A mile to school
[01:29.98]In a storm and it was uphill both ways
[01:33.86]Oh  you save your money for a hole in the ground
[01:37.55]A black car and a long wall of roses
[01:44.99]
[02:02.43]And the gathered all breathe
[02:03.55]A sigh of relief
[02:04.99]At completion of a well-laid plan
[02:09.11]It's wearing the day long
[02:11.24]And breaking the skin
[02:13.05]In the palms of the workingman's hands
[02:19.18]Now the old iron gate
[02:21.06]Could use some fresh paint
