Why do we build the wall, my children, my children?
Why do we build the wall?
Why do we build the wall?
We build the wall to keep us free
That's why we build the wall
We build the wall to keep us free..

How does the wall keep us free, my children, my children?
How does the wall keep us free?..
How does the wall keep us free?
The wall keeps out the enemy
And we build the wall to keep us free
That's why we build the wall
We build the wall to keep us free

Who do we call the enemy, my children, my children?
Who do we call 'The Enemy'?
Who do we call the enemy?
The enemy is poverty
And the wall keeps out the enemy
And we build the wall to keep us free
That's why we build the wall
We build the wall to keep us free

Because we have and they have not, my children, my children
Because they want what we have got..
Because we have and they have not
Because they want what we have got
The enemy is poverty
And the wall keeps out the enemy
That's why we build the wall
We build the wall to keep us free..

What do we have that they should want, my children, my children?
What do we have that they should want?..
What do we have that they should want?
We have a wall to work upon
We have work and they have none
And our work is never done,
My children, my children
And the war is never won
The enemy is poverty
The wall keeps out the enemy
And we build the wall to keep us free
That's why we build the wall
We build the wall to keeps us free,
We build the wall to keep us free !
