Ballad of Barney Graham - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]

On April the thirtieth[00:00:04]

Nineteen thirty-three[00:00:08]

Upon the streets of Wilder[00:00:12]

They shot him brave and free[00:00:16]

They shot my darling father[00:00:20]

He fell upon the ground[00:00:24]

'Twas in the back they shot him[00:00:27]

His blood came streaming down[00:00:31]

They took the pistol handles[00:00:35]

And beat him on the head[00:00:39]

The hired gunmen beat him[00:00:43]

'Til he was cold and dead[00:00:47]

When he left home that morning[00:00:51]

I though he'd never return[00:00:54]

But for my darlin' father[00:00:58]

My heart shall ever yearn[00:01:02]

We carried him to the graveyard[00:01:06]

There we laid him down[00:01:10]

To sleep in death for many a year[00:01:14]

In the cold and sodden ground[00:01:17]

Although he left the union[00:01:21]

He tried so hard to build[00:01:25]

His blood was spilled for justice[00:01:29]

And justice guides us still[00:01:33]
