《The Flood And The Storm》歌词

[00:00:00] The Flood And The Storm - Woody Guthrie

[00:00:04] The year is nineteen and twenty kind friends

[00:00:08] And the great World's War we have won

[00:00:13] Old Kaiser Bill we've beat him once again

[00:00:16] In the smoke of the cannon and the gun

[00:00:21] Old von Hindenburg and his Royal German Army

[00:00:25] They are tramps in tatters and in rags

[00:00:29] Uncle Sammy has tied every nation in this world

[00:00:33] In his long old leather money bags

[00:00:38] Wilson caught a trip and a train into Paris

[00:00:43] Meetin' Lloyd George and Mr Clemenceau

[00:00:46] They said to Mr Wilson we've staked all of our claims

[00:00:50] There is nothing else for you

[00:00:55] I plowed more lands I built bigger fact'ries

[00:00:59] An' I stopped Hindenburg in his tracks

[00:01:03] You thank the Yanks by claimin' all the lands

[00:01:06] But you still owe your money to my bank

[00:01:10] Keep sending your ships across these waters

[00:01:14] We'll borrow all the money you can lend

[00:01:18] We must buy new clothes new plows and fact'ries

[00:01:21] And we need golden dollars for to spend

[00:01:26] Ever' dollar in the world well it rolled and it rolled

[00:01:30] And it rolled into uncle Sammy's door

[00:01:33] A few got richer and richer and richer

[00:01:37] But the poor folks kept but gettin' poor

[00:01:43] Well the workers in the world did fight a revolution

[00:01:46] To chase out the gamblers from their land

[00:01:50] Farmers an' peasants an' workers in the city

[00:01:53] Fought together on their five-year plans

[00:01:57] The soul and the spirit of the workers' revolution

[00:02:00] Spread across ever' nation in this world

[00:02:04] From Italy to China to Europe and to India

[00:02:07] An' the blood of the workers it did spill

[00:02:11] This spirit split the wind to Boston Massachussetts

[00:02:15] With Coolidge on the Governor's chair

[00:02:20] Troopers an' soldiers the guards and the spies

[00:02:23] Fought the workers that brought the spirit there

[00:02:28] Sacco and Vanzetti had preached to the workers

[00:02:31] They was carried up to Old Judge Thayer

[00:02:35] They was charged with killin' the payroll guards

[00:02:39] And they died in the Charlestown chair

[00:02:43] Well the world shook harder on the night they died

[00:02:46] Than 'twas shaken by that great World War

[00:02:50] More millions did march for Sacco and Vanzetti

[00:02:54] Than did march for the great war lords

[00:02:57] Well the peasants the farmers the towns and the cities

[00:03:01] An' the hills and the valleys they did ring

[00:03:05] Hindenburg an' Wilson an' Harding Hoover Coolidge

[00:03:08] Never heard this many voices sing

[00:03:13] The zigzag lightning the rumbles of the thunder

[00:03:16] And the singing of the clouds blowing by

[00:03:20] The flood and the storm for Sacco and Vanzetti

[00:03:25] Caused the rich man to pull his hair and cry
