| [00:00.000] | 作曲 : Lampell |
| [00:07.01] | It was on a Saturday night and the moon was shing bright |
| [00:12.20] | They passed the conscription bill |
| [00:17.23] | And the people they did say for many miles away |
| [00:22.43] | 'Twas the president and his boys on capitol hill |
| [00:27.50] | Oh Franklin Roosevelt told the people how he felt |
| [00:32.98] | We damned near believed what he said |
| [00:37.71] | He said I hate war and so does Eleanor |
| [00:42.70] | But we won't be safe 'till everybody's dead |
| [00:56.97] | When my poor old mother died I was sitting by her side |
| [01:02.05] | A promising to war I'd never go |
| [01:06.21] | But now I'm wearing khaki jeans and eating army beans |
| [01:11.26] | And I'm told that J P morgan loves me so |
| [01:17.29] | I have wandered o'er this land a roaming working man |
| [01:22.08] | No clothes to wear and not much food to eat |
| [01:26.20] | But now the government foots the bill |
| [01:28.71] | Gives me clothes and feeds me swill |
| [01:31.04] | Gets me shot and puts me underground six feet |
| [01:35.65] | Oh Franklin Roosevelt told the people how he felt |
| [01:40.83] | We damned near believed what he said |
| [01:45.28] | He said I hate war and so does Eleanor |
| [01:49.88] | But we won't be safe 'till everybody's dead |
| [02:03.52] | Why nothing can be wrong if it makes our country strong |
| [02:08.21] | We got to get tough to save democracy |
| [02:12.39] | And though it may mean war |
| [02:14.46] | We must defend singapore |
| [02:16.86] | This don't hurt you half as much as it hurts me |
| [02:21.27] | Oh Franklin Roosevelt told the people how he felt |
| [02:26.23] | We damned near believed what he said |
| [02:30.54] | He said I hate war and so does Eleanor |
| [02:35.02] | But we won't be safe 'till everybody's dead |
