jim glover - hands lyrics
[chorus]
hands, hands, hands
work to build the land, land, your land
the labor of the woman and the man
working with their hands, hands, hands
working with their hands
[verse 1]
i’ve seen the hands of the laborer
that lifted all the loads
and the granite stuck to their fingers
as they built the c+n+ls and the roads
now they’re cleared and the bridges span
the rivers paused by the power dams
and now the hand of the laborer
is reaching out to you
[verse 2]
oh, i’ve seen the hand of the miner
digging out the coal (hands, hands, hands)
and the black dust stuck to their fingers
as they risked their lives in a hole
but the rocks, they’re still under the ground
now the mines are closing down
and now the hand of the miner
is reaching out to you
[chorus]
oh, the hands, hands, hands
that work to build the land, land, your land
the labor of the woman and the man
working with their hands, hands, hands
working with their hands
[verse 3]
and i’ve seen the hands of the lumberjack
and the forests swaying in the breeze
and the splinters stuck to their fingers
as the lumber was torn from the trees
and the wood that came from your timber tall
built your buildings from wall to wall
and now the hands of the lumberjack
are reaching out to you
[chorus]
oh, the hands, hands, hands
that work to build the land, land, your land
the labor of the woman and the man
working with their hands, hands, hands
working with their hands
[verse 4]
i’ve seen the hands of the farmer
plowing across the field
and the topsoil stuck to their fingers
as the land was split by the steel
just growing all they could grow
fill your tables row after row
and now the hand of the farmer
is reaching out to you
[chorus]
oh, the hands, hands, hands
working on the land, land, your land
the labor of the woman and the man
working with their hands, hands, hands
that work to build the land, land, your land
the labor of the woman and the man
working with their hands, hands, hands
working with their hands
[outro]
thank you
