Building a City

On this original version of Building a City, folk musician Tom Glazer guides his young audience through the many stages of urban construction, introducing them to the essential labor, tools, and processes that bring a city to life. With titles like “Painter’s Song,” “Carpenter’s Song,” and “Steamroller Song,” each song both familiarizes listeners with a new step of the building process and encourages them to imagine themselves as active participants, vividly describing the operations of steamrollers, steam shovels, and wheelbarrows.
