《A Dollar Ain’t a Dollar Anymore》歌词

[00:00:00] A Dollar Ain't A Dollar Any More - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)/Tom Glazer

[00:00:03] I was feeling kinda hungry

[00:00:05] So I thought I'd buy some bread

[00:00:07] I went into the corner grocery store

[00:00:10] I took out the usual money

[00:00:12] But the grocer shook his head

[00:00:13] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:00:16] Oh a dollar bill don't buy what it used to

[00:00:20] Don't buy what it used to

[00:00:21] Don't buy what it used to

[00:00:23] A dollar hill don't buy what it used to

[00:00:27] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:00:30] Now I live in a rooming house

[00:00:32] My room is awful small

[00:00:33] As a matter of fact it's only two by four

[00:00:37] But the landlord raised my rent

[00:00:38] And now I'm living in the wall

[00:00:40] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:00:43] Oh a dollar bill don't buy what it used to

[00:00:47] Don't buy what it used to

[00:00:48] Don't buy what it used to

[00:00:50] A dollar hill don't buy what it used to

[00:00:53] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:00:57] Here's a lesson in arithmetics:

[00:00:59] Now one and one make two

[00:01:00] And it is true that two and two make four

[00:01:03] But when the prices get higher

[00:01:05] Why arithmetic's a liar

[00:01:07] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:01:10] Oh a dollar bill don't buy what it used to

[00:01:14] Don't buy what it used to

[00:01:15] Don't buy what it used to

[00:01:17] A dollar hill don't buy what it used to

[00:01:20] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:01:24] From the tree that grows

[00:01:25] In Brooklyn to the Gulf of Mexico

[00:01:27] From Florida out to the western shore

[00:01:30] We'll take Congress by the collar

[00:01:32] "Roll those prices back " we'll holler

[00:01:34] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:01:37] Oh a dollar bill don't buy what it used to

[00:01:40] Don't buy what it used to

[00:01:42] Don't buy what it used to

[00:01:44] Oh a dollar hill don't buy what it used to

[00:01:47] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:01:50] So it you wanna learn a lesson;

[00:01:52] If you really wanna see

[00:01:54] If you wanna solve your problems by the score

[00:01:57] Fight your economic battles with the good old C I 0

[00:02:01] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore

[00:02:04] Oh a dollar bill don't buy what it used to

[00:02:07] Don't buy what it used to

[00:02:09] Don't buy what it used to

[00:02:11] Oh a dollar hill don't buy what it used to

[00:02:14] 'Cause a dollar ain't a dollar anymore
