Willie Nile - They'll Build a Statue of You lyrics
They'll build a statue of you to commend the deeds you've done Face your figure to the west to gaze off in the sun They'll build a statue of you of your heritage and fame Pay you all their due respects like.... "Here's to what's his name" They'll build a statue of you they'll chistel down your nose Plant some trees around you they'll wash you with a hose They'll put you in the finest clothes your worthiness complete Now pidgeons can shit in your ears and dogs piss on your feet The winter winds will whip your back the hail will bite your hand The April rain will strike your face I hope you understand They'll build a statue of you your countenance will shine Fine ladies and fine gentlemen will drink you up like wine I'll bet you think that what you do will make the angels sing But baby I am telling you it doesn't mean a thing The winter winds will whip your back the hail will bite your hand The April rain will strike your face I hope you understand They'll build a statue of you they'll put it in the square Immortality will be yours too bad you won't be there They'll build a statue of you "Folks, this man moved his mountain And now he's buried underground beneath this lovely fountain" |
