Comment and vote, folks!Lyrics will be added on Video too:

I've traveled 'round this country

from shore to shining shore

It really made me wonder

the things I heard and saw

I saw the weary farmer

plowing sod and loam

l heard the auction hammer

just a-knocking down his home

But the banks are made of marble

with a guard at every door

and the vaults are stuffed with silver

that the farmer sweated for

I've seen the weary miner

scrubbing coal dust from his back

I heard his children cryin'

he got no coal to heat the shack.

But the banks are made of marble

with a guard at every door

and the vaults are stuffed with silver

that the miner sweated for

I saw the seaman standing

Idly by the shore.

I heard the owner saying,

Got no work for you no more.

But the banks are made of marble,

With a guard at every door,

And the vaults are stuffed with silver,

That the seaman sweated for.

I've seen my brothers working

throughout this mighty land

l prayed we'd get together

and together make a stand

Then we' ll own those banks of marble

with a guard at every door

and we share those vaults of silver

that we have sweated for.

Your dualistic view of only two models for society is idiotic.

You really live in your own little bubble, don't you? Lots of countries provide disaster relief, you just don't hear about it on Headline News. And I remember the days when people made stuff on the internet because it was something they loved, not because they wanted to get bought out by a big corporation. It was better back then; netizens were smarter than the average population. Oh, and yes, I'm an American. We have a lot to be proud of but not our ignorant, self-centered vision of ourselves.

Tellme, Alex are you an American? Does it make any difference that whenever there is a disaster across the world the USA is usually the first country to offer assistance, if there was no cpaitalism there would be no you tube you ignorant fuck

Probably when the US isn't an imperialist, capitalist, racist, sexist oppression machine full of assholes like you, but yet you persist.

well he kinda does! Should have seen him whining and having a tantrum with the Scottish people because they wouldn't leave their land for his golf course, he got so angry, insulting their farming lifestyle in the media and stuff. Just like a little child who doesn't get what they want, the wealthiest are often the worst for it

and whats wrong with being 'anti-american?', can you hear yourself? You want an arrogant and self-righteous man, look no further than Donald Trump, one of your horrifically capitalist scumbags who decided he wants a golf resort for the rich in Scotland, and the farmers do not want to give away their land, so he makes their lives hell for years and forces them out of the homes their families have lived on for many years, this is just one example of your wealthy tycoons, there are many many more..
