《Talking Dust Bowl Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Talking Dust Bowl Blues - Woody Guthrie

[00:00:08] Back in Nineteen Twenty-Seven

[00:00:10] I had a little farm and I called that heaven

[00:00:12] Well the prices up and the rain come down

[00:00:14] And I hauled my crops all into town --

[00:00:16] I got the money bought clothes

[00:00:19] And groceries

[00:00:21] Fed the kids and raised a family

[00:00:25] Rain quit and the wind got high

[00:00:27] And the black ol' dust storm filled the sky

[00:00:29] And I swapped my farm for a Ford machine

[00:00:31] And I poured it full of this gas-i-line --

[00:00:34] And I started rockin' an' a-rollin'

[00:00:38] Over the mountains out towards

[00:00:39] The old Peach Bowl

[00:00:45] Way up yonder on a mountain road

[00:00:47] I had a hot motor and a heavy load

[00:00:49] I's a-goin' pretty fast

[00:00:50] There wasn't even stoppin'

[00:00:51] A-bouncin' up and down

[00:00:52] Like popcorn poppin' --

[00:00:54] Had a breakdown sort of a nervous

[00:00:57] Bustdown of some kind

[00:00:58] There was a feller there a mechanic feller

[00:01:00] Said it was en-gine trouble

[00:01:19] Way up yonder on a mountain curve

[00:01:21] It's way up yonder in the piney wood

[00:01:23] An' I give that rollin' Ford a shove

[00:01:24] An' I's a-gonna coast as far as I could --

[00:01:28] Commence coastin' pickin' up speed

[00:01:32] Was a hairpin turn I didn't make it

[00:01:39] Man alive I'm a-tellin' you

[00:01:40] The fiddles and the guitars really flew

[00:01:43] That Ford took off like a flying squirrel

[00:01:45] An' it flew halfway around the world --

[00:01:48] Scattered wives and childrens

[00:01:49] All over the side of that mountain

[00:02:00] We got out to the West Coast broke

[00:02:02] So dad-gum hungry I thought I'd croak

[00:02:04] An' I bummed up a spud or two

[00:02:06] An' my wife fixed up a tater stew --

[00:02:10] We poured the kids full of it

[00:02:14] Mighty thin stew though

[00:02:16] You could read a magazine right through it

[00:02:21] Always have figured

[00:02:22] That if it'd been just a little bit thinner

[00:02:26] Some of these here politicians

[00:02:29] Coulda seen through it
