My D clothes are stained, it G matters D not
The D weather's cold, but A not for D naught
We D built a house, we G built a D life
For G someone D knowing A only D strife
We G came together, D group diverse
We G gathered here, betD ter or A worse
We G learned a D trade, a A useful D one
We G went aD way and A had some D fun
Our D contributions G paled from D those
Who D came each day, amaA teurs and D pros
But D those who gave sweat G equiD ty
Are G those we D really A need to D see
It's G not a handout, D not a check
It's G earned by them, pain, D back and A neck
Five G hundred D hours, they A choose to D give
To G earn their D own, in A which to D live
Our D half-day only G goes to D show
That D from a team comes A a chaD teau
And D love of fellow G man does D grow
A G gift on D us has A been beD stowed
