Don't Bite the Hand That's Feeding You - Walter van Brundt/The Peerless Quartet[00:00:00]
Last night as I lay asleeping[00:00:18]
A wonderful dream came to me[00:00:22]
I saw Uncle Sammy weeping[00:00:26]
For his children from over the sea[00:00:30]
They had come to him[00:00:34]
Friendless and starving[00:00:36]
When from tryrant's oppression they fled[00:00:39]
But now they abuse and revile him[00:00:43]
Till at last in just anger he said[00:00:47]
If you don't like your Uncle Sammy[00:00:52]
Then go back to your home over the sea[00:00:56]
To the land from where you came[00:01:00]
Whatever be it's name[00:01:03]
But don't be ungrateful to me[00:01:05]
If you don't like the stars in Old Glory[00:01:09]
If you don't like the Red[00:01:13]
White and Blue[00:01:15]
Then don't act like the cur in the story[00:01:17]
Don't bite the hand that's feeding you[00:01:21]
You recall the day you landed[00:01:35]
How I welcomed you to my shore[00:01:39]
When you came here empty handed[00:01:43]
And allegiance forever you swore[00:01:47]
I gathered you close to my bosom[00:01:52]
Of food and of clothes you got both[00:01:56]
So when in trouble[00:02:00]
I need you[00:02:02]
You will have to remember your oath[00:02:04]
If you don't like your Uncle Sammy[00:02:09]
Then go back to your home over the sea[00:02:13]
To the land from where you came[00:02:17]
Whatever be it's name[00:02:20]
But don't be ungrateful to me[00:02:22]
If you don't like the stars in Old Glory[00:02:26]
If you don't like the Red[00:02:30]
White and Blue[00:02:32]
Then don't act like the cur in the story[00:02:34]
Don't bite the hand that's feeding you[00:02:38]
