Langston Hughes - We're All in the Telephone Book lyrics

We're all in the telephone book, Folks from everywhere on earth— Anderson to Zabowski, It's a record of America's worth. We're all in the telephone book. There's no priority— A millionaire like Rockefeller Is likely to be behind me. For generations men have dreamed Of nations united as one. Just look in your telephone book To see where that dream's begun. When Washington crossed the Delaware And the pillars of tyranny shook, He started the list of democracy That's America's telephone book.
