THE MILL WAS MADE OF MARBLE
(Joe Glazer)

Well , I dreamed that I had died
And gone to my reward
A job in heaven's textile mill
On a golden boulevard

CHORUS
And the mill was made out of marble
The machines were made out gold
And nobody ever grew tired
And nobody ever grew old

The mill was built on a garden
No dust nor dirt could be found
The air was clean and it smelled so sweet
With the flowers and the trees all around

It was quiet and peaceful in heaven
There was no clatter or boom
And we heard the most beautiful music
As we worked at the spindle and the loom

And the mill was made out of marble
The machines were made out gold
And nobody ever grew tired
And nobody ever grew old

There was no unemployment in heaven
We worked steady all through the year
We always had food for the children
We were never haunted by fear

And the mill was made out of marble
The machines were made out gold
And nobody ever grew tired
And nobody ever grew old

When I awoke from my dream about heaven
Well, I wondered if there could be
A Mill like that one here on earth
For people like you and me

And the mill was made out of marble
The machines were made out gold
And nobody ever grew tired
And nobody ever grew old

And the mill was made out of marble
The machines were made out gold
And nobody ever grew tired
And nobody ever grew old
