Salt Of The Earth

Let's drink to the hard working people

Let's drink to the lowly of birth

Raise your glass to the good and the evil

Let's drink to the salt of the earth



Say a prayer for the common foot soldier

Spare a thought for his back breaking work

Say a prayer for his wife and his children

Who turn the fires and who still till the earth



When I see these crowd of faces

A swirling mass of black and gray and white

They look so real to me

But they look so much [Incomprehensible]



Raise your glass to the hard working people

Let's drink to the uncounted heads

Let's think of the wavering millions

Who need leaders but get gamblers instead



Spare a thought for the stay at home voter

His empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows

See the parading of gray suited grafters

The world is charming and they don't want to know



And when I see these crowd of faces

A swirling mass of gray and black and white

They look so real to me

And they look so much [Incomprehensible]



Let's drink to the hard working people

Let's think of the lowly of birth

Spare a thought for the rag taggy people

Let's drink to the salt of the earth



Let's drink to the hard working people

Let's think of the lowly of birth

Spare a thought for the rag taggy people

Let's drink to the salt of the earth



Let's drink to the people

Let's drink to the salt of the earth

Let's drink to the people

Let's drink to the salt of the earth



Let's drink to the people

Let's drink to the salt of the earth

Let's drink to the people

Let's drink to the salt of the earth
