《My Oklahoma Home Blowed Away》歌词

[00:00:00] My Oklahoma Home Blowed Away - Pete Seeger

[00:00:07] When they opened up the strip I was young and full of zip

[00:00:13] I wanted some place to call my own

[00:00:17] And so I made the race and staked me out a place

[00:00:22] And settled down along the Cimarron

[00:00:27] It blowed away it blowed away

[00:00:32] My Oklahoma home it blowed away

[00:00:37] It looked so green and fair when I built my shanty there

[00:00:42] But my Oklahoma home it blowed away

[00:00:47] I planted wheat and oats

[00:00:50] Got some chickens and some shoats

[00:00:53] Aimed to have some ham and eggs to feed my face

[00:00:58] Got a mule to pull the plow

[00:01:00] Got an old red muley cow

[00:01:03] And also got a fancy mortgage on the place

[00:01:08] It blowed away it blowed away

[00:01:13] All the crops I planted blowed away

[00:01:18] You can't grow any grain if you ain't got any rain;

[00:01:24] All except the mortgage blowed away

[00:01:29] It looked so green and fair

[00:01:31] When I built my shanty there

[00:01:34] I figured I was all set for life

[00:01:39] I put on my Sunday best with my fancy scalloped vest

[00:01:44] And went to town and picked me out a wife

[00:01:48] She blowed away she blowed away

[00:01:54] My Oklahoma woman blowed away

[00:01:59] Mister as I bent and kissed her

[00:02:01] She was picked up by a twister;

[00:02:04] My Oklahoma woman blowed away

[00:02:09] Then I was left alone a-listenin' to the moan

[00:02:14] Of the wind around the corners of my shack;

[00:02:19] So I took off down the road

[00:02:22] When the south wind blowed

[00:02:24] A-travelin' with the wind at my back

[00:02:29] I blowed away I blowed away

[00:02:35] Chasin' a dust cloud up ahead

[00:02:39] Once it looked so green and fair

[00:02:42] Now it's up there in the air;

[00:02:44] My Oklahoma farm is overhead

[00:02:49] Now I'm always close to home no matter where I roam

[00:02:55] For Oklahoma dust is everywhere

[00:03:00] Makes no difference where I'm walkin

[00:03:02] I can hear my chickens squawkin'

[00:03:04] I can hear my wife a-talkin' in the air

[00:03:09] It blowed away it blowed away

[00:03:15] My Oklahoma home blowed away

[00:03:20] But my home is always near;

[00:03:22] It's in the atmosphere

[00:03:25] My Oklahoma home that blowed away

[00:03:29] I'm a roamin' Oklahoman

[00:03:32] But I'm always close to home

[00:03:35] And I'll never get homesick 'til I die

[00:03:40] No matter where I'm found

[00:03:42] My home is all around;

[00:03:45] My Oklahoma home is in the sky

[00:03:49] It blowed away it blowed away

[00:03:55] My farm down upon the Cimarron

[00:04:00] But all around the world wherever dust is whirled

[00:04:05] Some is from my Oklahoma home

[00:04:10] It blowed away it blowed away

[00:04:15] My Oklahoma home blowed away

[00:04:21] Oh it's up there in the sky in

[00:04:23] That dust cloud rolling by

[00:04:26] My Oklahoma home is in the sky
