[verse]:
E B
In sixteen forty nine to St George's Hill
A E
a ragged band they called the Diggers came to show the peoples'
will
E B
they defied the Landlords, they defied the laws
A B E
they were the dispossessed, reclaiming what was theirs
E B
"we come in peace" they said, to dig and sow
A E
we come to work the lands in common and to make the wastegrounds
grow
E B
this earth divided, we will make whole
A B E
so it will be a common treasury for all
E B
the sin of property, we do disdain
A E
no man has any right to buy and sell the earth for private gain
E B
by theft and murder they took the land
A B E
now everywhere the walls spring up at their command
E B
they make the laws to chain us well
A E
the clergy dazzle us with heaven or they damn us into hell
E B
we will not worship the god they serve
A B E
the god of greed who feeds the rich while poor man starve
E B
we work, we eat together we need no swords
A E
we will not bow to the masters or pay rent to the lords
E B
we are free men, though we are poor
A B E
you diggers all stand up for glory stand up now
E B
from the men of property, the orders came
A E
they sent the hired men and troopers to wipe out the Diggers'
claim
E B
tear down their cottages, destroy their corn
A B E
they were dispersed, but still the vision lingers on
E B
you poor take courage, you rich take care
A E
this earth was made a common treasury for everyone to share
E B
all things in common, all people one
A B E
we come in peace, the orders came to cut them down
