Seven Nations

The Factory Song

Seven Nations


I Wonder How 
And I Wonder Why 
Without This Factory 
Could We Ever Survive? 
I Wonder Who 
I Wonder Where 
Are Faring Better Than Those Around Here?

I Left My Home 
And I Said My Goodbyes 
I Traveled Safely 
Though Some Met Their Demise.

I Work All Day, 
I Work Into the Night 
I've Joined the Union 
And I'm All Right

Now I Lay Me Down to Work 
I Pray My Soul Won't Get There First 
If I Should Die Before I Make It Back Home 
Please Carry Me Home

I Share This Cellar With Five of My Friends 
When the Big Bell Rings, Our Days At An End 
We Clear Our Throats From the Dusty Air 
The Machinary's Din We Always Hear

Now I Lay Me Down to Work 
I Pray My Soul Won't Get There First 
If I Should Die Before I Make It Back Home 
Please Carry Me Home

Now We Take Ourselves and Drink 
Our Minds and Bodies Too Tired to Think 
If We Should Die Before I Make It Back Home 
Please Carry Me Home

Late At Night As I Lay in My Bed 
The Factory's Lights Dancing Over My Head 
They Light This Whole Damn Town, They Light This Whole Damn Place 
Even When We Sleep, do We Fall From Grace?

Now I Lay Me Down to Work 
I Pray My Soul Won't Get There First 
If I Should Die Before I Make It Back Home 
Please Carry Me Home

Now We Take Ourselves and Drink 
Our Minds and Bodies Too Tired to Think 
If We Should Die Before I Make It Back Home

Please Carry Me Home
