"Lindbergh" by Woody Guthrie
Mister Charlie Lindbergh, he flew to old Berlin,
Got 'im a big Iron Cross, and he flew right back again
To Washington, Washington.
Misses Charlie Lindbergh, she come dressed in red,
Said: "I'd like to sleep in that pretty White House
bed
In Washington, Washington."
Lindy said to Annie: "We'll get there by and by,
But we'll have to split the bed up with Hoover, Clark,
and Nye
In Washington, Washington"
Hitler wrote to Lindy, said "Do your very worst,"
So Lindy started an outfit that he called America
First
In Washington, Washington
All around the country, Lindbergh he did fly,
And the gasoline was paid for by Hoover, Clark, and
Nye
In Washington, Washington
Lindy said to Hoover: "We'll do the same as France:
Make a deal with Hitler, and then we'll get our chance
In Washington, Washington"
Then they had a meetin', and all the Firsters come,
Come on a-walkin', they come on a-runnin',
(Washington, Washington)
Yonder comes father Coughlin, wearin' the silver
chain,
Cash on his stomach and Hitler on the brain.
(Washington, Washington)
Mister John L. Lewis would sit and straddle a fence,
'Cause his daughter signed with Lindbergh, and we
ain't seen her since
(Washington, Washington)
Hitler said to Lindy: "Stall 'em all you can,
We're gonna bomb Pearl Harbor with the help of old
Japan"
(Washington, Washington)
Then on a December mornin', the bombs come from Japan,
Wake Island and Pearl Harbor, kill fifteen hundred men
(Washington, Washington)
Lindy tried to join the army, but they wouldn't let
'im in,
'Fraid he'd sell to Hitler a few more million men
(Washington, Washington)
So I'm gonna tell you people: If Hitler's gonna be
beat,
The common workin' people has got to take the seat
In Washington, Washington
And I'm gonna tell you workers, 'fore you cash in your
checks:
They say "America First," but they mean "America
Next!"
In Washington, Washington
