[00:00.00] 作曲 : Pete Seeger/Millard Lampell/Lee Hays
[00:04.73]Let me tell you of a sailor, Harry Bridges is his name
[00:10.35]An honest union leader who the bosses tried to frame
[00:15.04]He left home in Australia to sail the seas around
[00:19.86]He sailed across the ocean to land in 'Frisco town
[00:25.55]There was only a company union the bosses had their way
[00:30.34]A worker had to stand in line for a lousy dollar a day
[00:35.27]When up spoke Harry Bridges, "Us workers got to get wise,
[00:39.98]Our wives and kids will starve to death if we don't get organized."
[00:44.49]Oh, the FBI is worried, the bosses they are scared
[00:49.71]They can't deport six million men, they know
[00:54.12]And we're not going to let them send harry over the sea
[00:59.24]We'll fight for Harry Bridges and build the C. I. O.
[01:06.17]They built a big bonfire by the matson lines that night
[01:11.10]They threw their fink books in it and they said, "We're gonna fight!
[01:15.80]You've got to pay a livin' wage or we're gonna take a walk."
[01:20.36]They told it to the bosses but the bosses wouldn't talk
[01:26.42]They said there's only one way left to get that contract signed
[01:31.21]And all around the waterfront they threw their picket line
[01:37.06]They called it bloody Thursday the fifth day of July
[01:41.73]For a hundred men were wounded and two were left to die
[01:46.17]Oh, the FBI is worried, the bosses they are scared
[01:51.19]They can't deport six million men, they know
[01:55.53]And we're not going to let them send harry over the sea
[02:00.33]We'll fight for Harry Bridges and build the C. I. O.
[02:07.10]Now that was seven years ago, and in the time since then
[02:12.00]Harry's organized thousands more and made them union men
[02:16.65]We must try to bribe him the shipping bosses said
[02:21.27]And if he won't accept a bribe we'll say that he's a red
[02:27.12]The bosses brought a trial to deport him over the sea
[02:31.41]But the judge said he's an honest man I got to set him free
[02:36.41]Then they brought another trial to frame him if they can
[02:40.83]But right by harry bridges stands every working man
[02:45.28]Oh, the FBI is worried, the bosses they are scared
[02:50.03]They can't deport six million men, they know
[02:54.26]And we're not going to let them send harry over the sea
[02:59.00]We'll fight for Harry Bridges and build the C. I. O.
