[00:02.050] I'm just a lonesome traveler, The Great Historical Bum.
[00:05.850] Highly educated from history I have come.
[00:09.336] I built the Rock of Ages, 'twas in the Year of One
[00:12.665] And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done.
[00:16.402] I worked in the Garden of Eden, that was the year of two,
[00:19.576] Joined the apple pickers union, I always paid my due;
[00:23.144] I'm the man that signed the contract to raise the rising sun,
[00:26.366] And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done.
[00:30.248] I was straw boss on the Pyramids, the Tower of Babel, too;
[00:33.706] Opened up the ocean let the migrant children through,
[00:37.186] I fought a million battles and I never lost a one,
[00:40.506] And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done.
[00:45.138] I beat the daring Roman, I beat the daring Turk,
[00:48.144] Defeated Nero's army with thirty minutes work,
[00:51.494] I fought the greatest leaders and I licked them everyone
[00:55.098] And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done.
[01:00.482] I was in the Revolution when we set the country free;
[01:03.988] It was me and a couple of Indians that dumped the Boston tea;
[01:07.629] We won the battle at Valley Forge, the battle of Bully Run;
[01:10.972] And that was about the biggest thing that man has ever done.
[01:15.341] There was a man across the ocean, I guess you knew him well,
[01:18.795] His name is Adolf Hitler, goddam his soul to hell;
[01:22.191] We kicked him in the panzers and put him on the run,
[01:25.663] And that'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done.
[01:30.382] I built mines and mills and factories to run for Uncle Sam;
[01:33.670] I turned th' ploughs and wheels to feed my soldiers in your lands;(?
[01:37.169] This Nazi job's a tough 'un, it'll take us everyone,
[01:40.542] 'Cause this will be the biggest thing that man has ever done.
[01:45.228] There's warehouse guys and teamsters and guys that skin the cats
[01:48.728] Guys that run my steel mill, my furnace and my blast
[01:52.053] We'll stop the Axis rattlesnakes and thieves of old Nippon
[01:55.329] And that'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done.
[01:59.961] I'd better quit my talking, 'cause I told you all I know,
[02:03.447] But please remember, pardner, wherever you may go,
[02:06.942] The people is digging Hitler's grave, and when the job is done
[02:10.451] That'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done.Yeah!
[02:13.912] That'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done.
