《Talking Union》歌词

[00:00:00] Talking Union - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)/Almanac Singers
[00:00:00] Written by:Pete Seeger/Millard Lampell/Lee Hays
[00:00:06] Now if you want higher wages let me tell you what to do
[00:00:08] You got to talk to the workers in the shop with you
[00:00:10] You got to build you a union got to make it strong
[00:00:12] But if you all stick together boys it won't be long
[00:00:15] You get shorter hours better working conditions
[00:00:20] Vacations with pay take your kids to the seashore
[00:00:24] It ain't quite this simple so I better explain
[00:00:26] Just why you got to ride on the union train
[00:00:29] 'Cause if you wait for the boss to raise your pay
[00:00:31] We'll all be a waitin' 'til Judgment day
[00:00:33] We'll all be buried gone to heaven
[00:00:38] St Peter'll be the straw boss then
[00:00:42] Now you know you're underpaid but the boss says you ain't
[00:00:44] He speeds up the work 'til you're 'bout to faint
[00:00:47] You may be down and out but you ain't beaten
[00:00:49] You can pass out a leaflet and call a meetin'
[00:00:51] Talk it over speak your mind
[00:00:56] Decide to do somethin' about it
[00:01:00] Course the boss may persuade some poor damn fool
[00:01:02] To go to your meetin' and act like a stool
[00:01:04] But you can always tell a stool though that's a fact
[00:01:06] He's got a yaller streak a runnin' down his back
[00:01:08] He doesn't have to stool he'll always get along
[00:01:13] On what he takes out of blind men's cups
[00:01:21] You got a union now and you're sittin' pretty
[00:01:23] Put some of the boys on the steering committee
[00:01:25] The boss won't listen when one guy squawks
[00:01:27] But he's got to listen when the union talks
[00:01:29] He'd better be mighty lonely
[00:01:34] Everybody decide to walk out on him
[00:01:41] Suppose they're working you so hard it's just outrageous
[00:01:43] And they're paying you all starvation wages
[00:01:45] You go to the boss and the boss would yell
[00:01:47] Before I raise your pay I'd see you all in hell
[00:01:49] Well he's puffing a big seegar feeling mighty slick
[00:01:51] 'Cause he thinks he's got your union licked
[00:01:54] Well he looks out the window and what does he see
[00:01:56] But a thousand pickets and they all agree
[00:01:58] He's a bastard unfair slavedriver
[00:02:04] Bet he beats his wife
[00:02:09] Now boys you've come to the hardest time
[00:02:12] The boss will try to bust your picket line
[00:02:14] He'll call out the police the national guard
[00:02:16] They'll tell you it's a crime to have a union card
[00:02:18] They'll raid your meetin' they'll hit you on the head
[00:02:20] They'll call every one of you a goddam red
[00:02:23] Unpatriotic Japanese spies sabotaging national defense
[00:02:33] But out at ford here's what they found
[00:02:35] And out at vultee here's what they found
[00:02:37] And out at allis chalmers here's what they found
[00:02:39] And down at bethlehem here's what they found
[00:02:41] That if you don't let red baiting break you up
[00:02:43] And if you don't let stoolpigeons break you up
[00:02:45] And if you don't let vigilantes break you up
[00:02:47] And if you don't let race hatred break you up
[00:02:50] You'll win what I mean take it easy but take it
