I d^Gocked at Ellis Island in a c^Dity of light and s^Gpire I wa^Gndered to the valley of r^Ced-hot steel and f^Dire We m^Gade the steel that built the cities with the s^Cweat of our two h^Gands And I m^Gade my ho^Cme in the A^Dmerican l^Gand ^G ^C ^D ^G

There's di^Gamonds in the sidewalk, there's g^Dutters lined in s^Gong D^Gear I hear that beer flows through the fa^Cucets all night l^Dong There's t^Greasure for the taking, for a^Cny hard working m^Gan Who will m^Gake his ho^Cme in the A^Dmerican l^Gand ^G ^C ^D ^G

The Mc^GNicholas, the Posalski's, the S^Dmiths, Zerillis t^Goo The Bl^Gacks, the Irish, Italians, the Ge^Crmans and the J^Dews Th^Ge Puerto Ricans, illegals, the Asians, A^Crabs miles from h^Gome C^Gome across the w^Cater with a f^Dire down be^Glow

They d^Gied building the railroads, wo^Drked to bones and s^Gkin They d^Gied in the fields and factories, names s^Ccattered in the w^Dind They d^Gied to get here a hundred years a^Cgo, they're dyin' ^Gnow The h^Gands that built the co^Cuntry we're all t^Drying to keep d^Gown
