Newspaper Men - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]

Oh newspapermen meet such interesting people[00:00:04]

Then knows the low down (now it can be told)[00:00:07]

I'll tell you quite reliably off the record[00:00:11]

About some charming people I have known[00:00:15]

For I meet politicians and grafters by the score[00:00:19]

Killers plain and fancy it's really quite a bore[00:00:23]

Oh newspapermen meet such interesting people[00:00:26]

He wallows in corruption crime and gore[00:00:30]

Ting a ling city desk[00:00:33]

Hold the press Hold the press[00:00:35]

Extra Extra Read all about it[00:00:37]

It's a mess meets the test[00:00:38]

Oh newspapermen meet such interesting people[00:00:41]

It's wonderful to represent the press[00:00:44]

Now you remember Mrs Sadie Smuggery[00:00:48]

She needed money to by new fur coat[00:00:52]

To get insurance she employed skullduggery[00:00:56]

She up and cut her husband's only throat[00:01:00]

She chopped him into fragments she stuffed him a trunk[00:01:03]

She shipped back yonder to her uncle in Podunk[00:01:07]

Now newspapermen meet such interesting people[00:01:11]

It must have startled poor old Sadie's unc[00:01:15]

Ting a ling city desk[00:01:17]

Hold the press Hold the press[00:01:19]

Extra Extra Read all about it[00:01:21]

It's a mess meets the test[00:01:23]

Oh a newspaperman meets such interesting people[00:01:25]

It's wonderful to represent the press[00:01:29]

Oh publishers are such interesting people[00:01:33]

Their policy's an acrobatic thing[00:01:36]

They claim they represent the common people[00:01:40]

It's funny Wall Street never has complained[00:01:44]

But the publishers have worries for publishers must go[00:01:48]

To working folks for readers and big shots for their dough[00:01:52]

Now are publishers are such interesting people[00:01:55]

It could be press titution I don't know[00:01:59]

Ting a ling circulation[00:02:02]

Ting a ling advertising[00:02:03]

Get those readers get that payoff[00:02:06]

What a headache what a mess[00:02:08]

Oh publishers are such interesting people[00:02:09]

Let's give three cheers for freedom of the press[00:02:13]

Now newspapermen are such interesting people[00:02:17]

They used to work like hell just for romance[00:02:21]

But finally the movies notwithstanding[00:02:25]

They all got tired of patches on their pants[00:02:28]

They organized a union to get a living wage[00:02:32]

They joined with other actors upon a living stage[00:02:36]

Now newspapermen are such interesting people[00:02:40]

When they know they've got a people's fight to wage[00:02:43]

Ting a ling Newspaper Guild[00:02:46]

Got a free new world to build[00:02:48]

Meet the people that's a thrill[00:02:50]

All together fits the bill[00:02:52]

Now newspapermen are such interesting people[00:02:54]

It's wonderful to represent the Guild[00:02:57]
