Sugar Trade

	作词 : Buffett, Mayer, Taylor
	Now back when this earth was a silver blue jewel
	And back when your grandfather's father was young
	Men of these shores made and gave up their lives
	Pulling up fish from the sea
	While down in the african slavery trade
	Stealing young men to cut sugar cane
	Rum to new bedford and codfish from maine
	They were building a wall that will always remain
	Oh, the crown and the cross the musket and chain
	The white man's religion, the family name
	Two hundred years later and who is to blame?
	The captain or the cargo or the juice of the sugar cane
	The doryman he knows when the riptides will run
	He sets out his nets and he sits in the sun
	He thinks of his family and drinks of his rum
	And he waits for the codfish to come
	It's the same god-damned ocean that keeps them alive
	It will swallow you up, it will let you survive
	It will heal you and steal you and take you away
	Like a note in a bottle with nothing to say
	Now back when this earth was a silver blue jewel
	And back when your grandfather's father was young
	Men of these shores made and gave up their lives
	Pulling up fish from the sea
