Long Time Ago

歌詞

I wish I was born a long long time ago Wish I was born a long long time ago Can't make it 'round here Oh that much is clear So take me back where the lonesome river flows Take me back where the lonesome river flows I'd find a preacher...one who's living well Find a preacher one who's living well With a flash car And a money jar Find that man and give him holy hell Find that man and give him holy hell I'd learn to ride the rails I'd learn to ride the rails Learn to live on stew And whiskey too And always a woman to make my bail And always a woman to make my bail Bring on the crash Mr Hoover You ain't gonna keep me down I can see ahead Your kind'll be dead There's a new deal coming 'round Gonna earn my daily bread with my hands Gonna earn my daily bread with my hands Walk that picket line Come rain or shine On the union side is where I'll stand On the union side is where I'll stand I tell you boys you're gonna learn my name I tell you boys you're gonna learn my name Guitar on my back Fiddle in my sack Writing songs that chronicle the shame Lord Lord 'cause I've learned some things never change Share a spoon with Woody Gutrie A cell with Mother Jones I'll agitate And desecrate And the girls won't leave me alone
