Vanzetti's Rock Lyrics
Vanzetti's Rock - Woody Guthrie (伍迪·格思里)
I'm standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Where men like you have stood
I see the tourists Vanzetti
Around your Plymouth rock
Black glasses sun goggles an' glasses
Smoked glasses to block out the light
I see 'em come here as you've seen 'em
I see lots more than you saw
I see 'em in fast running cars
You seen 'em in wagons and carts
I'm standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Where men like you have stood
These tourists don't see you Vanzetti
The salesmen and gamblers' on tour
Your footprints are dim an' your trail has sprung weeds
An' their tourist map don't show you there
The trade union workers Vanzetti
Will vacation here and will tour
This rock an' this town an' Plymouth around
When statues have souls like yours
I'm standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Where men like you have stood
Your picture is painted Vanzetti
Your words are carved 'round the frames
Your songs an' your poems an' workin' folks' dreams
Will flame with our greatest of names
Your name I'll paint on my porters
My streets my mountains an' shops
Your hopes that you hoped an' the dreams that you dreamt
I'll see that your work never stops
I'm standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Where men like you have stood
Those talks for the workers Vanzetti
I'll chisel 'em down on the rock
I'll tell every worker to fight like you fought
Like the pilgrims that docked on this rock
I'll scatter your words on my waters
To the ships an' the fishes an' gulls
I'll cast your fish cart in metal so fine
An' push it around this world
I'm standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Where men like you have stood
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Standing on the rock Vanzetti
Where men like you have stood
