《Sinking Of The Reuben James》歌词

[00:00:00] Sinking of the Reuben James - Woody Guthrie

[00:00:02] Have you heard of a ship called the good reuben james

[00:00:08] Manned by hard fighting men both of honor and fame

[00:00:15] She flew the stars and stripes of the land of the free

[00:00:19] But tonight she's in her grave at the bottom of the sea

[00:00:25] Tell me what were their names tell me what were their names

[00:00:30] Did you have a friend on the good reuben james

[00:00:34] What were their names tell me what were their names

[00:00:38] Did you have a friend on the good reuben james

[00:00:46] Well a hundred men went down in that dark watery grave

[00:00:52] When that good ship went down only forty four were saved

[00:00:59] 'Twas the last day of october we saved the forty four

[00:01:04] From the cold ocean waters and the cold icy shore

[00:01:09] Tell me

[00:01:10] What were their names tell me what were their names

[00:01:14] Did you have a friend on the good reuben james

[00:01:19] What were their names tell me what were their names

[00:01:22] Did you have a friend on the good reuben james

[00:01:34] It was there in the dark of that uncertain night

[00:01:39] That we watched for the u boats and waited for a fight

[00:01:45] Then a whine and a rock and a great explosion roared

[00:01:49] And they laid the reuben james on that cold ocean floor

[00:01:54] Tell me

[00:01:55] What were their names tell me what were their names

[00:01:59] Did you have a friend on the good reuben james

[00:02:05] What were their names tell me what were their names

[00:02:08] Did you have a friend on the good reuben james

[00:02:16] Now tonight there are lights in our country so bright

[00:02:21] In the farms and in the cities they're telling of the fight

[00:02:27] And now our mighty battleships will steam the bounding main

[00:02:31] And remember the name of that good reuben james

[00:02:37] Tell me

[00:02:38] What were their names tell me what were their names

[00:02:41] Did you have a friend on the good reuben james

[00:02:46] What were their names tell me what were their names

[00:02:50] Did you have a friend on the good reuben james
