Talking Sailor - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]
In bed with my woman just a singing the blues[00:00:10]
And I heard the radio a telling the news[00:00:12]
Said the big Red army took a hundred towns[00:00:15]
And the allies dropping them two ton bombs[00:00:17]
I started hollering yelling[00:00:21]
Dancing up and down like a bullfrog[00:00:25]
Doorbell rung in come a man[00:00:34]
I signed my name I got a telegram[00:00:36]
Says "If you want to take a vacation trip[00:00:40]
Got a dish washing job on a liberty ship"[00:00:43]
Woman a crying me a flying[00:00:47]
Out the door and down the line[00:00:52]
'Bout two minutes I run ten blocks[00:00:57]
I come to my ship down at the docks[00:00:59]
Walked up the plank and I signed my name[00:01:02]
Blowed the whistle and was gone again[00:01:05]
Right on out and down the stream[00:01:10]
Ships as far as my eye could see pulling away[00:01:15]
Ship loaded down with TNT[00:01:24]
All out across the rolling sea[00:01:27]
I stood on the deck and watched the fishes swim[00:01:30]
I was a-praying them fishes wasn't made of tin[00:01:33]
Sharks Porpoises[00:01:38]
Jelly beans rainbow trouts mud-cats jew-gars[00:01:42]
All over that water[00:01:51]
This convoy's the biggest I ever did see[00:01:56]
It stretches all the way out across the sea[00:01:58]
The ships blow their whistles and ring their bells[00:02:00]
Gonna blow them fascists all to hell[00:02:03]
Win some freedom liberty stuff like that[00:02:08]
Walked to the tail stood on the stern[00:02:21]
Looking at the big brass screw blade turn[00:02:23]
Listened to the sound of the engines pond[00:02:27]
Came sixteen feet every time it went round[00:02:30]
Gets closer and closer look out you Fascists[00:02:34]
I'm just one of the merchant crew[00:02:39]
I belong to the union called the NMR[00:02:41]
I'm a union man from head to toe[00:02:45]
I'm U-S-A and C-I-O[00:02:48]
Fighting out here on the waters[00:02:53]
Win some freedom on the land[00:02:57]
