We didn't know - Tom Paxton[00:00:00]

We didn't know said the Burgomeister [00:00:00]

About the camps on the edge of town [00:00:02]

It was Hitler and his crew [00:00:04]

That tore the German nation down [00:00:06]

We saw the cattle cars it's true [00:00:11]

And maybe they carried a Jew or two [00:00:13]

They woke us up as they rattled through [00:00:15]

But what did you expect me to do [00:00:17]

We didn't know at all [00:00:20]

We didn't see a thing [00:00:23]

You can't hold us to blame [00:00:25]

What could we do [00:00:27]

It was a terrible shame [00:00:30]

But we can't bear the blame [00:00:32]

Oh no not us we didn't know [00:00:34]

We didn't know said the congregation [00:00:40]

Singing a hymn in a church of white [00:00:42]

The Press was full lf lies about us [00:00:45]

Preacher told us we were right [00:00:47]

The outside agitators came [00:00:49]

They burned some churches and put the blame [00:00:52]

On decent southern people's names [00:00:54]

To set our colored people aflame [00:00:56]

And maybe some of our boys got hot [00:00:59]

And a couple of niggers and reds got shot [00:01:01]

They should have stayed where they belong [00:01:03]

And preacher would've told us if we'd done wrong [00:01:06]

We didn't know at all [00:01:09]

We didn't see a thing [00:01:11]

You can't hold us to blame [00:01:13]

What could we do [00:01:16]

It was a terrible shame [00:01:18]

But we can't bear the blame [00:01:20]

Oh no not us we didn't know [00:01:23]

We didn't know said the puzzled voter [00:01:28]

Watching the President on TV [00:01:31]

I guess we've got to drop those bombs [00:01:33]

If we're gonna keep South Asia free [00:01:35]

The President's such a peaceful man [00:01:38]

I guess he's got some kind of plan [00:01:40]

They say we're torturing prisoners of war [00:01:42]

But I don't believe that stuff no more [00:01:44]

Torturing prisoners is a communist game [00:01:47]

And You can bet they're doing the same [00:01:49]

I wish this war was over and through [00:01:52]

But what do you expect me to do [00:01:54]

We didn't know at all [00:01:57]

We didn't see a thing [00:01:59]

You can't hold us to blame [00:02:02]

What could we do [00:02:04]

It was a terrible shame [00:02:06]

But we can't bear the blame [00:02:08]

Oh no not us we didn't know[00:02:11]
