Biggest Thing Man Has Ever Done - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]
I'm just a lonesome traveler The Great Historical Bum [00:00:02]
Highly educated from history I have come [00:00:06]
I built the Rock of Ages 'twas in the Year of One[00:00:09]
And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done [00:00:13]
I worked in the Garden of Eden that was the year of two [00:00:16]
Joined the apple pickers union I always paid my due;[00:00:20]
I'm the man that signed the contract to raise the rising sun [00:00:23]
And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done [00:00:27]
I was straw boss on the Pyramids the Tower of Babel too;[00:00:30]
I opened up the ocean let the migrant children through [00:00:34]
I fought a million battles and I never lost a one [00:00:37]
And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done [00:00:41]
I beat the daring Roman I beat the daring Turk [00:00:45]
Defeated Nero's army with thirty minutes work [00:00:48]
I fought the greatest leaders and I licked them everyone[00:00:52]
And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done [00:00:55]
I was in the Revolution when we set the country free;[00:01:00]
Me and a couple of Indians that dumped the Boston tea;[00:01:04]
We won the battle at Valley Forge the battle of Bully Run;[00:01:07]
And that was about the biggest thing that man has ever done [00:01:11]
There was a man across the ocean I guess you knew him well [00:01:15]
His name was Adolf h****r goddam his soul to hell;[00:01:19]
We kicked him in the panzers and put him on the run [00:01:22]
And that was about the biggest thing that man has ever done [00:01:26]
I built mines and mills and factories to run for Uncle Sam;[00:01:30]
I turned th' ploughs and wheels to feed my soldiers in your lands;[00:01:34]
This n**i job's a tough 'un it'll take us everyone [00:01:37]
'Cause this is about the biggest thing that man has ever done [00:01:41]
There's warehouse guys and teamsters and guys that skin the cats[00:01:45]
Guys that run my steel mill my furnace and my blast[00:01:48]
We'll stop the Axis rattlesnakes and thieves of old Nippon[00:01:52]
And that will be the biggest thing that man has ever done [00:01:55]
I'd better quit my talking 'cause I told you all I know [00:02:00]
But please remember pardner wherever you may go [00:02:04]
The people are building a peaceful world and when the job is done[00:02:07]
That'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done [00:02:10]
Yes that'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done[00:02:13]
