Lyrics " Deliver the Goods "

Original text with translation

Deliver the Goods

Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger

It’s gonna take everybody to win this war

The butcher and the baker and the clerk in the store

The guys who sail the ships, and the guys who run the trains

And the farmer raisin' wheat upon the Kansas plains

The butcher, the baker, the tinker and the tailor

Will all work behind the soldier and the sailor

We’re workin' in the cities, we’re workin' in the woods

And we’ll all work together to deliver the goods

Now, me and my boss, we never did agree

If a thing helped him then it didn’t help me

But when a burglar tries to bust into your house

You stop fighting with the landlord and throw him out

I got a new job and I’m workin' overtime

Turning out tanks on the assembly line

Gotta crank up the factories like the President said

Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead

I bet this tank will look mighty fine

Punching holes in Mr. Hitler’s line

And if Adolph wakes up after the raid

He’ll find every piece of shrapnel says «„U.S.A.“»

From New York City to Frisco Bay

We’re speedin' up production everyday

And every time a wheel goes around

It carries Mr. Hitler to the burying ground
