He Lies in the American Land - Woodie Guthrie[00:00:00]
Written by:Kovaly/Seeger[00:00:02]
Ah my God what is this land of America[00:00:04]
So many people traveling there[00:00:10]
I will go too for I am still young[00:00:16]
God the lord will grant me good luck there[00:00:22]
You my wife stay here till you hear from me[00:00:28]
When you get my letter put everything in order[00:00:34]
Mount a raven black steed a horse like the wind[00:00:41]
Fly across the ocean to join me here[00:00:47]
Ah but when she arrived in this strange land[00:00:55]
Here in Mckeesport this valley this valley of fire[00:01:02]
Only his grave his blood did she find[00:01:09]
Over it bitterly she cried[00:01:14]
Ah my husband what've you done to this family of yours[00:01:21]
What can you say to these children to these children you've orphaned[00:01:29]
Tell them my wife not to wait not to wait not to wait for me[00:01:35]
Tell them I lie here in the American land[00:01:41]
