[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com[00:05.27]Take a trip with me in nineteen thirteen
[00:10.17]To Calumet Michigan
[00:11.75]In the copper country
[00:14.94]I'll take you to a place called Italian Hall
[00:20.38]And the miners are having their big Christmas Ball
[00:28.57]I'll take you in a door and up a high stairs
[00:33.04]Singing and dancing is heard everywhere
[00:37.65]I'll let you shake hands with the people you see
[00:43.13]And watch the kids dance round that big Christmas tree
[00:51.93]You ask about work and you ask about pay
[00:56.64]They'll tell you that they make less
[00:58.24]Than a dollar a day
[01:01.79]Working the copper claims risking their lives
[01:05.85]So it's fun to spend Christmas with children and wives
[01:13.48]There's talking and laughing and songs in the air
[01:17.38]And the spirit of Christmas is there everywhere
[01:22.39]Before you know it
[01:23.79]You're friends with us all
[01:27.03]And you're dancing around and around in the hall
[01:35.11]Well little girl sits down
[01:36.68]By the Christmas tree lights
[01:38.17]To play the piano
[01:39.65]So you gotta keep quiet
[01:41.53]To hear all this fun you would not realize
[01:45.97]That the copper boss thug men are milling outside
[01:52.54]The copper boss thugs stuck their heads in the door
[01:56.77]One of them yelled and he screamed
[01:58.50]There's a fire
[02:01.08]A lady she hollered
[02:02.51]There's no such a thing
[02:04.82]Keep on with your party
[02:07.96]There's no such a thing
[02:11.06]A few people rushed and it's only a few
[02:14.23]It's just the thugs and the scabs fooling you
[02:18.96]A man grabbed his daughter
[02:20.55]And he carried her down
[02:22.85]But the thugs held the door
[02:26.81]And he could not get out
[02:29.92]And then others followed
[02:31.51]A hundred or more
[02:32.91]But most everybody remained on the floor
[02:36.92]The gun thugs they laughed at their murderous joke
[02:40.57]And the children were smothered
[02:43.94]On the stairs by the door
[02:47.13]Such a terrible sight I never did see
[02:51.19]We carried our children back up to their tree
[02:55.99]The scabs outside still laughed at their spree
[03:01.53]And the children that died there were seventy three
[03:08.79]The piano played a slow funeral tune
[03:13.32]And the town was lit up by a cold Christmas moon
[03:18.33]The parents they cried and the miners they moaned
[03:25.41]See what your greed for money has done
