The One On the Right Is On the Left - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)[00:00:00]
There once was a musical troupe[00:00:06]
A pickin' singin' folk group[00:00:09]
They sang the mountain ballads[00:00:12]
And the folk songs of our land[00:00:14]
They were long on musical ability[00:00:18]
Folks thought they would go far[00:00:20]
But political incompatibility led to their downfall[00:00:22]
Well the one on the right was on the left[00:00:27]
And the one in the middle was on the right[00:00:30]
And the one on the left was in the middle[00:00:32]
And the guy in the rear was a Methodist[00:00:35]
This musical aggregation toured the entire nation[00:00:46]
Singing the traditional ballads[00:00:51]
And the folk songs of our land[00:00:54]
They with performed great virtuosity[00:00:57]
And soon they were the rage[00:01:00]
But political animosity prevailed upon the stage[00:01:02]
Well the one on the right was on the left[00:01:07]
And the one in the middle was on the right[00:01:10]
And the one on the left was in the middle[00:01:12]
And the guy in the rear burned his driver's license[00:01:15]
Well the curtain had ascended[00:01:25]
A hush fell on the crowd[00:01:28]
As thousands there were gathered[00:01:30]
To hear The folk songs of our land[00:01:32]
But they took their politics seriously[00:01:36]
And that night at the concert hall[00:01:39]
As the audience watched deliriously[00:01:41]
They had a free-for-all[00:01:44]
Well the one on the right was on the bottom[00:01:46]
And the one in the middle was on the top[00:01:48]
And the one on the left got a broken arm[00:01:51]
And the guy in the rear said Oh dear[00:01:53]
Now this should be a lesson[00:02:05]
If you plan to start a folk group[00:02:07]
Don't go mixin' politics with the folk songs of our land[00:02:10]
Just work on harmony and diction[00:02:16]
Play your banjo well[00:02:19]
And if you have political convictions[00:02:21]
Keep them to yourself[00:02:24]
Now the one on the left works in a bank[00:02:26]
And the one in the middle drives a truck[00:02:28]
The one on the right's an all-night deejay[00:02:31]
And the guy in the rear got drafted[00:02:33]
