Talking Birmingham Jam (LP版) - Phil Ochs (菲尔·奥克斯)[00:00:00]
Walkin down to birmingham[00:00:08]
Way down South in dixieland[00:00:10]
I thought that I would stop a while[00:00:12]
Take a vacation southern style[00:00:15]
Got some southern hospitality[00:00:18]
Down there in a southern hospital[00:00:21]
Well all the signs said welcome in[00:00:27]
Sun by governor well us rin tin tin[00:00:29]
He said come along and watch the fights[00:00:32]
While we feed our dogs on civil rights[00:00:35]
Now don't get a wrong[00:00:38]
Some of my best Negros are friends[00:00:41]
Well I've seen travel in many ways[00:00:48]
I've traveled in cars and old subways[00:00:50]
But in birmingham some people chose[00:00:53]
To fly down the street from a fire hose[00:00:56]
Doin some hard travelin[00:00:59]
From hydrants of plenty[00:01:02]
Well a pack of dogs was standin by[00:01:08]
I walked up to them and I said hi[00:01:10]
Well I asked one dog what they all were doin[00:01:13]
He walked up to me and started chewin[00:01:14]
I said hold it[00:01:18]
I'm from the ASPCA[00:01:19]
Sociaty prevention of grouth he atituates[00:01:22]
And I said there must be some men around[00:01:29]
There can't be only you dogs in town[00:01:31]
They said sure we have old bull conner[00:01:33]
There he goes walkin yonder[00:01:36]
Throwin some raw meat[00:01:39]
To the mayor[00:01:41]
Feedin bones to the city council[00:01:43]
You know goven a walles dosen't meen on horm[00:01:48]
I can't to see his Got a lot of charme[00:01:51]
His protenacts lines for the rich an poors[00:01:53]
Then and is schools house door[00:01:56]
Waycrackin jokes[00:01:59]
Talking heratly breankly[00:02:01]
Serving jerry darry[00:02:03]
Get rell acting[00:02:05]
So I asked 'em how they spend their time[00:02:10]
With segregation on their mind[00:02:13]
They said if you don't like to live this way[00:02:15]
Get outta here go back to the USA[00:02:17]
Live with all them Russians[00:02:21]
New York agitatiors[00:02:24]
Some say they've passed their darkest hour[00:02:29]
Those moderates are back in power[00:02:31]
But listen close with open ears[00:02:33]
They'll help us out in a couple a hundred years[00:02:35]
But don't push em[00:02:39]
Whatever you do[00:02:41]
Or else you get those extremists back in[00:02:42]
You see alabama is a soveriegn state[00:02:47]
With soveriegn dogs and soveriegn hate[00:02:49]
They stand for the bible for the constitution[00:02:51]
They stand against communist revolution[00:02:53]
They say[00:02:57]
It's pinkos like you that freed the slaves[00:02:58]
And their right[00:03:03]
