That Was The President (LP版) - Phil Ochs (菲尔·奥克斯)[00:00:00]
The bullets of the false revenge[00:00:16]
Have struck us once again[00:00:19]
As the angry seas have[00:00:23]
Struck upon the sand[00:00:25]
And it seemed as though a friendless[00:00:29]
World had lost itself a friend[00:00:32]
That was the President and that was the man [00:00:36]
I still can see him smiling there[00:00:44]
And waving at the crowd[00:00:48]
As he drove through the music of the band[00:00:51]
And never even knowing no[00:00:57]
More time would be allowed[00:01:00]
Not for the President and not for the man [00:01:04]
Here's a memory to share [00:01:12]
Here's a memory to save[00:01:15]
Of the sudden early ending of command[00:01:19]
Yet a part of you and a part of[00:01:25]
Me is buried in his grave[00:01:28]
That was the President and that was the man [00:01:32]
It's not only for the leader[00:01:40]
That the sorrow hits so hard[00:01:43]
There are greater things[00:01:47]
I'll never understand[00:01:48]
How a man so filled with life [00:01:53]
Even death was caught off guard [00:01:56]
That was the President and that was the man [00:02:00]
Every thing he might have[00:02:09]
Done and all he could have been[00:02:11]
Was proven by the troubled traitors hand[00:02:16]
For what other death could[00:02:21]
Wound the hearts of so many men[00:02:24]
That was the President and that was the man [00:02:29]
Yes the glory that was Lincoln's[00:02:37]
Never died when he was slain[00:02:40]
It's been carried over time and time again[00:02:45]
And to the list of honor you may add another name[00:02:51]
That was the President and that was the man [00:02:58]
That was the President and that was the man[00:03:06]
