Sinking of the Reuben James - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

Have you heard of a ship called the good reuben james[00:00:02]

Manned by hard fighting men both of honor and fame[00:00:08]

She flew the stars and stripes of the land of the free[00:00:15]

But tonight she's in her grave at the bottom of the sea[00:00:19]

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

Did you have a friend on the good reuben james[00:00:30]

What were their names tell me what were their names[00:00:34]

Did you have a friend on the good reuben james[00:00:38]

Well a hundred men went down in that dark watery grave[00:00:46]

When that good ship went down only forty four were saved[00:00:52]

'Twas the last day of october we saved the forty four[00:00:59]

From the cold ocean waters and the cold icy shore[00:01:04]

Tell me[00:01:09]

What were their names tell me what were their names[00:01:10]

Did you have a friend on the good reuben james[00:01:14]

What were their names tell me what were their names[00:01:19]

Did you have a friend on the good reuben james[00:01:22]

It was there in the dark of that uncertain night[00:01:34]

That we watched for the u boats and waited for a fight[00:01:39]

Then a whine and a rock and a great explosion roared[00:01:45]

And they laid the reuben james on that cold ocean floor[00:01:49]

Tell me[00:01:54]

What were their names tell me what were their names[00:01:55]

Did you have a friend on the good reuben james[00:01:59]

What were their names tell me what were their names[00:02:05]

Did you have a friend on the good reuben james[00:02:08]

Now tonight there are lights in our country so bright[00:02:16]

In the farms and in the cities they're telling of the fight[00:02:21]

And now our mighty battleships will steam the bounding main[00:02:27]

And remember the name of that good reuben james[00:02:31]

Tell me[00:02:37]

What were their names tell me what were their names[00:02:38]

Did you have a friend on the good reuben james[00:02:41]

What were their names tell me what were their names[00:02:46]

Did you have a friend on the good reuben james[00:02:50]
