Sinking Of The Reuben James 歌詞
Whoopie Ti Yi Yo, Get Along Little Dogies - Woody Guthrie (伍迪·格思裏)
Written by：Trad/Guthrie/Hays/Lampell/Seeger
Have you heard of a ship called the good Reuben
James
Manned by hard fighting men both of honor and fame
She flew the stars and stripes of the land of
The free
Tonight she's in her grave on the bottom of
The sea
Tell me what were their names tell me what were
Their names
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James
What were their names tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James
Well a hundred men went down in that dark watery
Grave
When that good ship went down only forty four were
Saved
'Twas the last day of october we saved the forty
Four
From the cold ocean waters and the cold icy shore
Tell me what were their names tell me what were
Their names
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James
What were their names tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James
It was there in the dark of that uncertain night
That we watched for the u boats and waited for
A fight
Then a whine and a rock and a great explosion
Roared
Laid the Reuben James on that cold ocean
Floor
Tell me what were their names tell me what were
Their names
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James
What were their names tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James
Now tonight there are lights in our country so bright
In the farms and in the cities they're telling of
The fight
Now our mighty battleships will steam the bounding main
And remember the name of that good Reuben James
Tell me what were their names tell me what were
Their names
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James
What were their names tell me what were their names
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James
