《The Biggest Thing Man Has Ever Done》歌词

[00:00:00] The Biggest Thing Man Has Ever Done - Woody Guthrie/Sonny Terry (桑尼·特里)

[00:00:02] I'm just a lonesome traveler

[00:00:04] The Great Historical Bum

[00:00:06] Highly educated from history I have come

[00:00:09] I built the Rock of Ages

[00:00:11] 'Twas in the Year of One

[00:00:14] And that was about the biggest thing

[00:00:15] That man had ever done

[00:00:17] I worked in the Garden of Eden

[00:00:18] That was the year of two

[00:00:20] Joined the apple pickers union

[00:00:21] I always paid my due;

[00:00:23] I'm the man that signed the contract

[00:00:25] To raise the rising sun

[00:00:27] And that was about the biggest thing

[00:00:28] That man had ever done

[00:00:30] I was straw boss on the Pyramids

[00:00:32] The Tower of Babel too;

[00:00:33] I opened up the ocean let the migrant children through

[00:00:37] I fought a million battles

[00:00:38] And I never lost a one

[00:00:40] And that was about the biggest thing

[00:00:42] That man had ever done

[00:00:45] I beat the daring Roman

[00:00:46] I beat the daring Turk

[00:00:48] Defeated Nero's army with thirty minutes work

[00:00:51] I fought the greatest leaders

[00:00:53] And I licked them everyone

[00:00:55] And that was about the biggest thing

[00:00:57] That man had ever done

[00:01:00] I was in the Revolution

[00:01:02] When we set the country free;

[00:01:04] Me and a couple of Indians

[00:01:05] That dumped the Boston tea;

[00:01:07] We won the battle at Valley Forge

[00:01:09] The battle of Bully Run;

[00:01:11] And that was about the biggest thing

[00:01:13] That man has ever done

[00:01:15] There was a man across the ocean

[00:01:17] I guess you knew him well

[00:01:19] His name was Adolf Hitler

[00:01:20] Goddam his soul to hell;

[00:01:22] We kicked him in the panzers

[00:01:24] And put him on the run

[00:01:26] And that was about the biggest thing

[00:01:27] That man has ever done

[00:01:31] I built mines and mills

[00:01:32] And factories to run for Uncle Sam;

[00:01:33] I turned th' ploughs

[00:01:34] And wheels to feed my soldiers in your lands;

[00:01:36] This Nazi job's a tough 'un it'll take us everyone

[00:01:40] 'Cause this is about the biggest thing

[00:01:42] That man has ever done

[00:01:45] There's warehouse guys and teamsters

[00:01:47] And guys that skin the cats

[00:01:49] Guys that run my steel mill

[00:01:50] My furnace and my blast

[00:01:52] We'll stop the Axis rattlesnakes

[00:01:54] And thieves of old Nippon

[00:01:55] And that will be the biggest thing

[00:01:57] That man has ever done

[00:02:00] I'd better quit my talking

[00:02:01] 'Cause I told you all I know

[00:02:03] But please remember pardner

[00:02:04] Wherever you may go

[00:02:07] The people are building a peaceful world

[00:02:08] And when the job is done

[00:02:10] That'll be the biggest thing

[00:02:12] That man has ever done

[00:02:14] Yes that'll be the biggest thing

[00:02:16] That man has ever done
