Peggy, oh Peggy
Was walking on
Some hilly trail
As he came upon
A weird old man
Breaking rocks in blocks
Hey what are you doing friend?
Can't you see I'm half a man?
I'm poor and my job is a shame
I'm a stone breaker, stone breaker
I'm a stone breaker, stone breaker, yeah
Peggy, oh Peggy
Was walking on
Some hilly trail
As he came upon
Another man
Breaking rocks in blocks
What are you doing man?
I'm proud to be a working man
So I can feed my wife and my children
I'm a stone breaker, stone breaker
I'm a stone breaker, stone breaker, yeah
And my girl, my girl
Unsatisfied girl
Before you say what cannot be unsaid
My girl unsatisfied, girl
It's only fair if you wanna get away
Peggy, oh Peggy
Was walking on
Some hilly trail
As he came upon
Another man
Breaking rocks in blocks
Hey what are you doing friend?
Can't you see I'm building a cathedral?
Ain't that special?
I'm a stone breaker, stone breaker
I'm a stone breaker, stone breaker
I'm a stone breaker, stone breaker
