The Sinking of the Reuben James - The Almanac Singers/Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]

Have you heard of a ship[00:00:20]

Called the good Reuben James[00:00:22]

Manned by hard fighting men[00:00:25]

Both of honor and fame [00:00:28]

She flew the Stars[00:00:31]

And Stripes of the land of the free[00:00:33]

But tonight she's in her grave[00:00:36]

At the bottom of the sea[00:00:38]

Tell me what were their names [00:00:42]

Tell me what were their names[00:00:44]

Did you have a friend[00:00:47]

On the good Reuben James [00:00:48]

What were their names tell me [00:00:52]

What were their names [00:00:54]

Did you have a friend[00:00:56]

On the good Reuben James[00:00:58]

Well a hundred men went down[00:01:01]

In that dark watery grave[00:01:03]

When that good ship went down[00:01:06]

Only forty-four were saved[00:01:09]

That was the last day of October[00:01:12]

We saved the forty-four[00:01:15]

From the cold ocean waters[00:01:17]

And the cold icy shore[00:01:19]

Tell me what were their names [00:01:23]

Tell me what were their names[00:01:25]

Did you have a friend[00:01:28]

On the good Reuben James [00:01:29]

What were their names tell me [00:01:32]

What were their names [00:01:34]

Did you have a friend[00:01:37]

On the good Reuben James[00:01:39]

It was there in the dark of[00:01:42]

That uncertain night[00:01:45]

That we watched for the U-boats[00:01:48]

And waited for a fight[00:01:50]

Then a whine and a rock[00:01:53]

And a great explosion roared[00:01:55]

And they laid the Reuben James[00:01:58]

On that cold ocean floor[00:02:00]

Tell me what were their names [00:02:03]

Tell me what were their names[00:02:05]

Did you have a friend[00:02:08]

On the good Reuben James [00:02:10]

What were their names tell me [00:02:13]

What were their names [00:02:15]

Did you have a friend[00:02:17]

On the good Reuben James[00:02:19]

Now tonight there are lights[00:02:23]

In our country so bright[00:02:26]

In the farms and in the cities[00:02:29]

They're telling of the fight[00:02:32]

And now our mighty battleships[00:02:35]

Will steam the bounding main[00:02:38]

And remember the name of[00:02:40]

That good Reuben James[00:02:42]

Tell me what were their names [00:02:45]

Tell me what were their names[00:02:48]

Did you have a friend[00:02:50]

On the good Reuben James [00:02:52]

What were their names tell me [00:02:55]

What were their names [00:02:57]

Did you have a friend[00:02:59]

On the good Reuben James[00:03:01]
