Lyrics
There once was a church on east beach
South of highway 49
And all the kids in the town they would marry there
One weekend at a time
But now it's rubble
Now it's rubble
Now it's rubble
Now it's rubble
The banker's boy met the debutante
They were married in July
But it turns out he was a gambler
And he left her high and dry
When the walls fall before your eyes
You build it back up again
Stone by stone
Gotta take it stone by stone
Gotta take it stone by stone by stone
Down in a South Wales valley
There was a boom in mining town
Where every working man was someone
Until Maggie shut them down
But now they're rubble
Now they're rubble
Now they're rubble
Now they're rubble
So the miner's son left the valley
He needed something that would pay
So he could send home money to his family
To keep the bailiffs at bay
When the walls fall before your eyes
You build it back up again
Stone by stone
Gotta take it stone by stone
Gotta take it stone by stone by stone
Gotta take it stone by stone
Gotta take it stone by stone
Gotta take it stone by stone by stone
My roots are in this valley
My folks married in that church
The banker's boy was my daddy
And I'll be buried in this earth
Underneath this rubble
'Neath this rubble
Underneath this rubble
'Neath this rubble
