I heard the awful sound of dirt on coffins
According to your works you'll get paid
Some of dem fool and some are wise
Some of we black and some are white
But there's no reason to fuss and fight
According to your works you get paid
Well I know that thousand doves
Came tonight to bring you with
So fare thee well and please take care
According to your works you'll get paid
Well I know you'll never dance alone
