《Talking Sailor Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Talking Sailor Blues - Jack Elliott

[00:00:15] In bed with my woman just singin' the blues

[00:00:17] Heard the radio tellin' the news

[00:00:21] That the big Red Army took a hundred towns

[00:00:23] And Allies droppin' them two-ton bombs

[00:00:27] Started hollerin' yellin' dancin' up and down like a bullfrog

[00:00:41] Doorbell rung and in come a man

[00:00:43] I signed my name I got a telegram

[00:00:45] Said If you wanna take a vacation trip

[00:00:49] Got a dish-washin' job on a Liberty ship

[00:00:56] Woman a-cryin' me a-flyin' out the door and down the line

[00:01:13] 'Bout two minutes I run ten blocks

[00:01:15] I come to my ship down at the dock

[00:01:17] Walked up the plank and I signed my name

[00:01:22] Blowed that whistle was gone again

[00:01:26] Right on out and down the stream

[00:01:29] Ships as fur as my eye can see woman a-waitin'

[00:01:46] Ship loaded down with TNT

[00:01:48] All out across the rollin' sea

[00:01:50] Stood on the deck watched the fishes swim

[00:01:55] I'se a-prayin' them fish wasn't made out of tin

[00:01:59] Sharks porpoises jellybeans

[00:02:05] Rainbow trouts mudcats jugars all over that water

[00:02:22] This convoy's the biggest I ever did see

[00:02:24] Stretches all the way out across the sea

[00:02:26] And the ships blow the whistles and a-rang her bells

[00:02:30] Gonna blow them fascists all to hell

[00:02:35] Win some freedom liberty stuff like that

[00:02:46] Walked to the tail stood on the stern

[00:02:48] Lookin' at the big brass screw blade turn

[00:02:56] Listened to the sound of the engine pound

[00:03:02] Gained sixteen feet every time it went around

[00:03:08] Gettin' closer and closer look out you fascists

[00:03:18] I'm just one of the merchant crew

[00:03:20] I belong to the union called the N.M.U

[00:03:25] I'm a union man from head to toe

[00:03:30] I'm U.S.A and C.I.O

[00:03:36] Fightin' out here on the waters to win some freedom on the land
