Tear Down These Walls

Tear down these walls
They keep raising for youIn the slipstream of luck and democracy
A victim of chance and geography
I reap and I sow the face of the earth
While big guns play games with the land of my birthI walk these hills and I sail the seas
I've weathered the storms of history
Created to live, created to share
With the fish of the sea, the birds of the airTear down these walls
All men were born the same
You came here with nothing
But naked and a name
Oh, a nameTear down these walls
They keep raising for you, hey, heyI'm not too hot on Dukes or Earls or Graces
But I love respect and exalted places
Give me the people with sod on the knee
The higher the monkey climbs the more he reveals, oh, ohTear down these walls
All men were born the same
You came here with nothing
But naked and a nameTear down these walls
All men were born the same
You came here with nothing
But naked and a name
Oh, a nameTear down these walls
They keep raising for you
Oh, tear down these walls
They keep raising for youAw, tear down these walls
They keep raising for youTear down, tear down tear down
