《The Preacher and the Slave(Pie in the Sky)》歌词

[00:00:00] Pie in the Sky - Cisco Houston/Woody Guthrie

[00:00:04] Long-haired preachers come out every night

[00:00:08] To tell you what's wrong and what's right

[00:00:11] But when asked how about something to eat

[00:00:15] They will answer in voices so sweet:

[00:00:19] You will eat bye and bye

[00:00:24] In that glorious land above the sky

[00:00:27] Work and pray live on hay

[00:00:31] You'll get pie in the sky when you die

[00:00:34] That's a lie

[00:00:37] And the starvation army they play

[00:00:41] They sing and they clap and they pray

[00:00:45] 'Till they get all your coin on the drum

[00:00:49] Then they'll tell you when you're on the bum:

[00:00:53] You're gonna eat bye and bye poor boy

[00:00:57] In that glorious land above the sky way up high

[00:01:01] Work and pray live on hay

[00:01:05] You'll get pie in the sky when you die

[00:01:08] Dirty lie

[00:01:11] Holy Rollers and jumpers come out

[00:01:15] They holler they jump Lord they shout

[00:01:19] Give your money to Jesus they say

[00:01:23] He will cure all troubles today

[00:01:26] And you will eat bye and bye

[00:01:30] In that glorious land above the sky way up high

[00:01:35] Work and pray boy live on hay

[00:01:38] You'll get pie in the sky when you die

[00:01:45] If you fight hard for children and wife

[00:01:49] Try to get something good in this life

[00:01:53] You're a sinner and bad man they tell

[00:01:57] When you die you will sure go to hell

[00:02:00] You will eat bye and bye

[00:02:04] In that glorious land above the sky

[00:02:08] Work and pray live on hay

[00:02:12] You'll get pie in the sky when you die

[00:02:18] Workingmen of all countries unite

[00:02:22] Side by side we for freedom will fight

[00:02:25] When this world and it's wealth we have gained

[00:02:29] To the grafters we'll sing this refrain:

[00:02:33] Well you will eat bye and bye

[00:02:37] When you've learned how to cook and to fry

[00:02:41] Chop some wood it' ll do you good

[00:02:46] You will eat in the sweet bye and bye

[00:02:49] Yes you'll eat bye and bye

[00:02:54] In that glorious land above the sky way up high

[00:02:58] Work and pray and live on hay

[00:03:02] You'll get pie in the sky when you die

[00:03:05] That's a lie
