Give It Back to the Indians (From 'Too Many Girls') - Ella Fitzgerald (埃拉·菲茨杰拉德)[00:00:00]
Old peter minuet had nothing to lose[00:00:09]
When he bought the isle of manhatten[00:00:13]
For twenty-six dollars and a bottle of booze[00:00:18]
And they threw in the bronx and staten[00:00:22]
Pete thought that he had the best of the bargin[00:00:27]
But the poor red man just grinned[00:00:30]
And he grunted ugh meaning okay in his jargon[00:00:35]
For he knew poor pete was skinned[00:00:39]
Weve tried to run the city but the city ran away[00:00:44]
And now peter minuet[00:00:54]
We can't continue it[00:01:00]
Broadways turning into coney[00:01:06]
Champagne charlies drinking gin[00:01:08]
Old Newyork is new and phony[00:01:11]
Give it back to the Indians[00:01:13]
Two cents more to smoke a lucky[00:01:16]
Dodging busses keep you thin[00:01:19]
Now Newyork is simply ducky[00:01:22]
Give it back to the Indians[00:01:24]
Take all the reds on the boxes made for soap[00:01:26]
Whites on fifth avenue[00:01:33]
Blues down in wall street losing hope[00:01:38]
Big bargain today chief take it away[00:01:44]
Come you busted city slickers[00:01:50]
Better take it on the chin[00:01:53]
Father nick has lost his knickers[00:01:56]
Give it back to the Indians[00:01:58]
Take all the reds on the boxes made for soap[00:02:26]
Whites on fifth avenue[00:02:33]
Blues down in wall street losing hope[00:02:38]
Big bargain today chief take it away[00:02:44]
Come you busted city slickers[00:02:50]
Better take it on the chin[00:02:53]
Father nick has lost his knickers[00:02:56]
Give it back to the Indians[00:02:58]
