[00:00.00] 作词 : LaFarge
[00:02.75] Gather round you people and a story i will tell
[00:10.16] About a brave young indian you should remember well
[00:16.97] From the tribe of pima indians, a proud and a peaceful band
[00:26.81] They farmed the phoenix valley in arizona land
[00:34.34] Down their ditches for a thousand years the sparkling water rushed
[00:43.86] Till their white man stole their water rights and the running water hushed
[00:51.24] Now ira's folks were hungry and their farms wene crops of weeds
[01:00.01] But when war came he volunteers and forgot, the white man's greed
[01:06.93] Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[01:14.11] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
[01:20.00] Yes, call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[01:26.60] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
[01:31.99]
[01:34.72] They started up iwo jima hill, 250 men
[01:42.03] But only 27 lived to walk back down that hill again
[01:48.20] And when the fight was over and the old glory raised
[01:55.72] One of the men who held it high was the indian ira hayes
[02:01.31] Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[02:07.88] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
[02:13.89] Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[02:21.50] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
[02:26.19]
[02:28.93] Now ira returned a hero, celebrated throughout the land
[02:36.04] He was wined and speeched and honored, everybody shook his hand
[02:42.40] But he was just a pima indian, no money crops, no chance
[02:50.53] And at home nobody cared what ira had done and the wind did the indian's
[02:54.80] Dance
[02:58.11] Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[03:05.48] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
[03:10.88] Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[03:17.81] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
[03:21.62]
[03:24.40] And ira started drinking hard, jail was often his home
[03:31.77] They let him raise the flag there and lower it like you'd throw a dog a bone
[03:38.04] He died drunk early one morning, alone in the land he'd fought to save
[03:48.08] Two inches of water in a lonely ditch was the grave for ira hayes
[03:55.68] Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[04:01.20] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
[04:06.64] Yes, call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[04:13.88] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
[04:18.10]
[04:20.16] Yes, call him, drunken ira hayes, but his land is still as dry
[04:28.51] And his ghost is lying thirsty in the ditch where ira died
[04:40.20] Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[04:46.88] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
[04:52.20] Yes, call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
[04:58.56] Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
