Plains of Nebrasky-o-Eric Andersen

[00:00.000] 作词 : Andersen [00:05.55]Have you heard about a country where the rivers run free, [00:10.48]That's a place where I think you ought to go [00:15.68]Where the corn stands high, tall as the sky, [00:20.27]On the great plains of Old Nebrasky–O. [00:25.83] [00:45.72]In school I read of men who died by the gun, [00:49.90]But not of those who died by the hoe. [00:54.24]The land has drunk the rains of many a farmer's blood [00:58.37]Now forgotten and buried long ago. [01:03.06] [01:04.57]Where are the hands that plowed fields without sleep [01:08.49]Hands that saved a dying calf without rest [01:13.09]Where are the feet that walked down them hot dusty trails [01:17.32]On their way to seek their fortunes going west. [01:21.05] [01:31.08]And where are the fathers who died in the dust [01:35.02]And mothers who died hungry in the snow [01:39.40]And where are the kids that watched the banks plow their houses down [01:42.93]Those are the things I guess my teaches never knowed. [01:49.03] [02:05.88]Is there anybody left to walk a muddy mile [02:11.11]Is courage a word that's only said [02:15.65]Is it true them dusty days are days that never really were [02:19.37]But are only tales in books to be read. [02:24.42] [02:25.83]You tell me drought hurt only corn and not men [02:31.09]You smile and say hard times have gone away [02:35.65]I guess I should listen to my city politician [02:39.73]Who keeps telling me these are better days. [02:42.99] [02:53.70]Have you heard about a country where the rivers run free, [02:57.53]That's a place where I think you ought to go [03:01.85]Where the corn stands high, tall as the sky, [03:06.22]On the great plains of Old Nebrasky-O
