The Biggest Thing Man Has Ever Done

The Biggest Thing Man Has Ever Done - Woody Guthrie (伍迪·格思里)

Written by：Trad. Guthrie

I'm just a lonesome traveler

The great historical bum

Highly educated from history I have come

I built the rock of ages

It was in the year of one

And that was about the biggest thing

That man had ever done

I worked in the garden of Eden

That was the year of two

Joined the apple pickers union

I always paid my due

I'm the man that signed the contract to raise the rising sun

And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done

I was straw boss on the pyramids the tower of babel too

I opened up the ocean let the migrant children through

I fought a million battles and I never lost a one

And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done

I beat the daring roman I beat the daring turk

Defeated nero's army with thirty minutes work

I fought the greatest leaders and I licked them everyone

And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done

I was in the revolution when we set the country free

It was me and a couple of Indians that dumped the Boston tea

We won the battle at valley forge the battle of bully run

And that was about the biggest thing that man has ever done

There was a man across the ocean and I guess you knew him well

His name was adolf hitler and damn his soul to hell

We kicked him in the panzers and put him on the run

And that was about the biggest thing that man has ever done

Mines and mills and factories to run for uncle sam

Produce and furs soldiers boys that fight to display lands

Our job's a tough un it'll take us everyone

And this is about the biggest thing that man has ever done

There's warehouse guys and teamsters

And guys that skin the cats

Guys that run my steel mill my furnace and my blast

We'll stop the axis rattlesnakes and thieves of old nippon

And that will be the biggest thing that man has ever done

I'd better quit my talking cause I told you all I know

Please remember pardner wherever you may go

The world is digging hitler's grave

And when the job is done

That'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done yeah

That'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done
