Текст (слова) песни «Automation Song»

GB7EmAm7D7 G
Oh I laid down your railroads, every mile of track.
B7Em Am7D7 G
With the muscles on my arm and the sweat upon my back.
G7 CGCG
And now the trains are rolling, they roll to every shore
CG A7D
You tell me that my job is through, there ain't no work no more.
GB7Em Am7D7 G
Though I laid down your highways all across the land.
B7EmAm7D7G
With the ringing of the steel and the power of my hands.
G7 C GCG
And now the roads are there like ribbons in the sky,
CGA7D
You tell me that my job is through but still I wonder why.

Em Bm
For the wages were low and the hours were long
Em D7

And the labour was all I could bear.
Em Bm
Now you've got new machines for to take my place
Am7 D7
And you tell me it's not mine to share.
GB7Em Am7 D7G
Though I laid down your factories and laid down your fields,
B7EmAm7D7 G
With my feet on the ground and my back to your wheels.
G7 C G CG
And now the smoke is rising, the steel is all a-glow,
CG D7 G
I'm walking down a jobless road and where am I to go.

(repeat)

Em Am D7G
Tell me, where am I to go.
