Woody Guthrie
farmer-labor train 歌詞
From the high Canadian Rockies to the land of Mexico,
City and the country, wherever you may go,
Through the wild and windy weather, the sun and sleet and rain,
Comes a-whistlin through the country this Farmer-Labor train.
Listen to the jingle and the rumble and the roar,
Shes rollin through New England to the West Pacific shore.
Its a long time weve been waitin, now shes been whistlin round the bend,
Roll on into Congress on that Farmer-Labor train.
Theres lumberjacks and teamsters and sailors from the sea,
Theres farmin boys from Texas and the hills of Tennessee,
Theres miners from Kentucky, theres fishermen from Maine;
Every worker in the country rides that Farmer-Labor train.
Theres warehouse boys and truckers and guys that skin the cats,
Men that run the steel mills, the furnace and the blast,
Through the smoky factory cities, oer the hot and dusty plains,
And the cushions they are crowded, on this Farmer-Labor train.
Listen to the jingle and the rumble and the roar ,
Shes rollin through New England to the West Pacific shore.
Its a long time weve been waitin, now shes been whistlin round the bend,
Ride on on into Congress on that Farmer-Labor train.
Theres folks of every color and theyre ridin side by side
Through the swamps of Louisiana and across the Great Divide,
From the wheat fields and the orchards and the lowing cattle range,
And they're rolling onto victory on this Farmer-Labor train.
This train pulled into Washington a bright and happy day,
When she steamed into the station you could hear the people say:
'Theres that Farmer -Labor Special, shes full of union men
Headin onto White House on the Farmer-Labor train.'
