lyrics

Who´s Gonna Build Your Wall? Tom Russell

(G)
I got eight hundred miles of open border (D)right outside my door,
There's (D7)Minute Men in little pickup trucks who've de(C)clared their own dang (G)war.
Now the government wants to build a barrier, like old Ber(D)lin, eight feet tall,
But if (D7)Uncle Sam sends the illegals home, (C)who's gonna build the (G)wall?

Who's gonna build your wall, boys?
(C)Who's gonna mow your (G)lawn?
Who's gonna (G/F#)cook your (Em)Mexican food
When your (D)Mexican maid is gone?
(G)Who's gonna wax the floors tonight
Down (C)at the local (Am)mall?
(G)Who's gonna (G/F#)wash your (Em)baby's face?
(D)Who's gonna build your (G)wall?

Now I ain't got no politics, so don't (D)lay that rap on me,
(D7)Left wing, right wing, up wing, down wing, I see (C)strip malls from sea to shining (G)sea.
It's the fat cat white developer who's (D)created this whole damn squall,
It's a (D7)pyramid scheme of dirty jobs, and (C)who's gonna build your (G)wall?

Who's gonna build your wall, boys?
(C)Who's gonna mow your (G)lawn?
Who's gonna (G/F#)cook your (Em)Mexican food
When your (D)Mexican maid is gone?
(G)Who's gonna wax the floors tonight
Down (C)at the local (Am)mall?
(G)Who's gonna (G/F#)wash your (Em)baby's face?
(D)Who's gonna build your (G)wall? (F) (C) (G)

We've got fundamentalist Muslims, we've got (D)fundamentalist Jews,
We've got (D7)fundamentalist Christians, they'll blow the (C)whole thing up for (G)you.
But as I travel around this big old world, there's (D)one thing that I most fear,
It's a (D7)white man in a golf shirt with a (C)cell phone in his (G)ear.

Yeah, who's gonna build your wall, boys?
(C)Who's gonna mow your (G)lawn?
Who's gonna (G/F#)cook your (Em)Mexican food
When your (D)Mexican maid is gone?
(G)Who's gonna wax the floors tonight
Down (C)at the local (Am)mall?
(G)Who's gonna (G/F#)wash your (Em)baby's face?
(D)Who's gonna build your (G)wall?
Yeah, who's gonna (G/F#)wash your (Em)baby's face?
(D)Who's gonna build your (G)wall? (F) (C) (G)

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year... ... more
