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
