Vigilante Man Lyrics

Vigilante Man (治安维持者) - Woody Guthrie (伍迪·格思里)/Bess Hawes

Have you seen that vigilante man

Have you seen that vigilante man

Have you seen that vigilante man

I been hearin' his name all over the land

Well what is a vigilante man

Tell me what is a vigilante man

Has he got a gun and a club in his hand

Is that a vigilante man

 

Rainy night down in the engine house

Sleepin' just as still as a mouse

Man come along an' he chased us out in the rain

Was that a vigilante man

Stormy days we passed the time away

Sleepin' in some good warm place

 

Man come along an' we give him a little race

Was that a vigilante man

Preacher Casey was just a workin' man

And he said "Unite all you working men "

Killed him in the river some strange man

Was that a vigilante man

Oh why does a vigilante man

Why does a vigilante man

Carry that sawed-off shot-gun in his hand

Would he shoot his brother and sister down

I rambled 'round from town to town

I rambled 'round from town to town

And they herded us around like a wild herd of cattle

Was that the vigilante men

Have you seen that vigilante man

Have you seen that vigilante man

 

I've heard his name all over this land
