《Too Many Martyrs(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Too Many Martyrs (LP版) - Phil Ochs (菲尔·奥克斯)
[00:00:04] In the state of Mississippi
[00:00:07] Many years ago
[00:00:09] A boy of fourteen years got a taste of
[00:00:12] Southern law
[00:00:14] He saw his friend a hanging
[00:00:16] And his color was his crime
[00:00:18] And the blood upon his jacket
[00:00:21] Left a brand upon his mind
[00:00:24] Too many martyrs and too many dead
[00:00:28] Too many lies
[00:00:30] Too many empty words were said
[00:00:33] Too many times for
[00:00:35] Too many angry men
[00:00:38] Oh let it never be again
[00:00:44] His name was Medgar Evers
[00:00:46] And he walked his road alone
[00:00:48] Like Emmett Till and thousands more
[00:00:51] Whose names we'll never know
[00:00:54] They tried to burn his home
[00:00:55] And they beat him to the ground
[00:00:58] But deep inside they both knew
[00:01:00] What it took to bring him down
[00:01:03] Too many martyrs
[00:01:05] And too many dead
[00:01:08] Too many lies
[00:01:09] Too many empty words were said
[00:01:13] Too many times for
[00:01:14] Too many angry men
[00:01:17] Oh let it never be again
[00:01:23] The killer waited by his home
[00:01:26] Hidden by the night
[00:01:28] As Evers stepped out from his car
[00:01:30] Into the rifle sight
[00:01:33] He slowly squeezed the trigger
[00:01:35] The bullet left his side
[00:01:37] It struck the heart of every man
[00:01:40] When Evers fell and died
[00:01:43] Too many martyrs and too many dead
[00:01:47] Too many lies
[00:01:49] Too many empty words were said
[00:01:52] Too many times for
[00:01:54] Too many angry men
[00:01:57] Oh let it never be again
[00:02:01] And they laid him in his grave
[00:02:03] While the bugle sounded clear
[00:02:06] Laid him in his grave
[00:02:08] When the victory was near
[00:02:11] While we waited for the future
[00:02:13] For freedom through the land
[00:02:15] The country gained a killer
[00:02:17] And the country lost a man
[00:02:21] Too many martyrs and too many dead
[00:02:25] Too many lies
[00:02:27] Too many empty words were said
[00:02:30] Too many times for too many angry men
[00:02:34] Oh let it never be again
[00:02:39] Oh let it never be again
