Pomi D'Ottone E Manici Di Scopa - Solid Citizen

Walter was a wastrel,

He never cared for work.

Till the day that we fell in love, on his jobs he’d shirked.

But on the day we married

Ambition struck his heart

He set out to make his mark in life,

Looking proud and smart.



He’s a solid citizen

Solid as they come

Staunch and steady Walter, he’s me rock of Gibraltar.

he’s a solid citizen,

All his life he spends

Mixing mortar with sand and water, making cement.



All together now!



He’s a solid citizen,

Solid as they come,

Staunch and steady Walter, he’s me rock of Gibraltar.

He’s a solid citizen

All his life is spent

Mixing mortar with sand and water, making cement.



Sixty years he labored in the construction trade.

Fame and fortune had passed him by,

No great mark he’d made.

Then the hand of fortune brushed him,

When stumbling from his pub.

He staggered by the building site

And tripped into his tub.



Now he’s a solid citizen

Solid as they come

Staunch and steady Walter, he’s me rock of Gibraltar.

he’s a solid citizen

Fitting how he went

Now he’s standing tall in the bricklayer’s hall

His own monument!

Now he’s standing tall in the bricklayer’s hall

His own monument!
