I've got a telegraph in my hand
words on paper written in sand
We've got telegraph right acrosss this land
It doesn't mean a damn thing
We don't understand
But who needs telegraph -
Anyway?
I've got a telegraph in my hand
Words on paper written in sand
We've got telegraph
Right across this land
It doesn't mean a damn thing
We don't understand
God's got a telegraph on his side -
It makes him powerful
gives him pride -
Even in America they understand -
The value of the telegraph hand in hand
