Lyrics

I’m gonna build a wall
I’m gonna build a wall
Big and wide and tall, it’ll never fall
I’m gonna build a wall
I’m gonna dig a moat
I’m gonna dig a moat
So deep and dark
They’re gonna need a bigger boat
I’m gonna dig a moat
I’m gonna lock you out
I’m gonna lock you out
You can scream and stomp and shout
But there ain’t no doubt
I’m gonna lock you out
I’m gonna build a wall
Separate us all
Cinderblock and wire
It’s gonna be so high
You’re gonna have to fly
To get on over
I’m gonna blow the bridge
I’m gonna blow the bridge
I don’t want ‘em, comin’ ‘cross the river
From over the ridge
I’m gonna blow the bridge
I’m gonna bury our love
I’m gonna burn our hope
I’m gonna pray that we don’t hang by our own rope
I’m gonna burn our hope
I’m gonna build a wall
Separate us all
Cinderblock and wire
It’s gonna be so high
You’re gonna have to fly
To get on over
Now, look at what I made
Look at what you made
Out of fear and hate, a beautiful barricade
Look at what I made!
I’m gonna build a wall
Separate us all
Cinderblock and wire
It’s gonna be so high
You’re gonna have to fly
To get on over
Might have to die
To get on over
