Get out the crane
Construction time again
What is it this time
We’re laying on a pipeline
Let the beads of sweat flow
Until the ends have met, though
It could take a long time
Working on a pipeline
Taking from the greedy, giving to the needy
On this golden day
Work’s been sent our way
That could last a lifetime
Working on a pipeline
From the heart of the land
To the mouth of the man
Must reach him sometime
We’re laying on a pipeline
Taking from the greedy, giving to the needy
