Talking Merchant Marine - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

Written by：Guthrie[00:00:01]

In bed with my woman just singin' the blues[00:00:10]

Heard the radio tellin' the news[00:00:12]

That the big red army took a hundred towns[00:00:15]

And allies droppin' them two ton bombs[00:00:17]

Started hollerin' yellin' dancin' up and down like a bullfrog[00:00:21]

Doorbell rung and in come a man[00:00:34]

I signed my name I got a telegram[00:00:36]

Said if you wanna take a vacation trip[00:00:39]

Got a dish washin' job on a liberty ship[00:00:43]

Woman a cryin'[00:00:47]

Me a flyin'[00:00:50]

Out the door and[00:00:52]

Down the line[00:00:53]

'Bout two minutes I run ten blocks[00:00:57]

I come to my ship down at the dock[00:00:59]

Walked up the plank and I signed my name[00:01:02]

Blowed that whistle was gone again[00:01:05]

Right on out and down the stream[00:01:10]

Ships as fur' as my eye could see[00:01:15]

Woman a[00:01:22]

Waitin'[00:01:22]

Ship loaded down with tnt all out across the rollin'[00:01:24]

Sea[00:01:28]

Stood on the deck watched the fishes swim[00:01:30]

I'se a prayin' them fish wasn't made out of tin[00:01:33]

Sharks porpoises jellybeans rainbow trouts[00:01:38]

Mudcats jugars all over that water[00:01:46]

This convoy's the biggest I ever did see[00:01:55]

Stretches all the way out across the sea[00:01:58]

And the ships blow the whistles and a rang her[00:01:59]

Bells[00:02:01]

Gonna blow them fascists all to hell[00:02:03]

Win some freedom liberty stuff like here[00:02:08]

Walked to the tail stood on the stern[00:02:21]

Lookin' at the big brass screw blade turn[00:02:23]

Listened to the sound of the engine pound[00:02:27]

Gained sixteen feet every time it went around[00:02:30]

Gettin' closer and closer look out you fascists[00:02:34]

I'm just one of the merchant crew[00:02:39]

I belong to the union called the N M U[00:02:41]

I'm a union man from head to toe[00:02:45]

I'm U S A and C I O[00:02:48]

Fightin' out[00:02:53]

Here on the waters[00:02:53]

To win some freedom on the land[00:02:57]
