Pipeline

You've got a mansion, tall and splendid
You've got your own island in the Caribbean
Got your own hotel and your own airplane
But you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline through this land

You got big ideas and a great big paycheck
And a closet full of designer suits
Custom shoes of Italian leather
But you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline through this land

You can send mercenaries with clubs and crowbars
Bring big bulldozers and use dynamite
Pepper spray us, sic your dogs on us
But you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline through this land

You can hide behind the walls of your mansion
You can go to church every Sunday morning
But your creator sees what you're doing
You're trying to lay your pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline through this land

You want to pump your poison into our water
You want to wreck this sacred burying ground
But this piece of earth don't belong to no one
And you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline
But you ain't laying no pipeline through this land
