Empire Builder Lyrics

Empire Builder lyrics

Empire, empire

Build it higher and higher

He's coming for booty

On a black-eyed horse, he'll ride it up the wall



They're gonna set you up pretty, Geronimo

They'll stick you coal-washing

At the cigar store for some firewater

Well, happy thanksgiving



You know, they're coming from burgeon

And chippin' in west

You know their burghers really are the best

The king of burgher



Yeah, they got your empire east

You'll probably ask of it

Opportunity's knocking

Your empire's building



And you're ready to call it a day

But the wheel's already in motion

Well, on the train of tomorrow

Get out of the way, empire builder



Well you've got to hit the road

Pretty mama's boy like an empire builder

Well, you've got to say goodbye to your mama

Like an empire builder



Peacemaker

Tree baker

Salt shaker

Earth quaker

Side shafter

King maker
