Dirty Overalls - My Dirty Overhauls

(albüm: Woody Guthrie Sings Folk Songs - 1962)

Well, the guns of war have roared
And the bombs and shells have fallen
The war clouds they rumbled as they rolled
I was a soldier in the fight
And we fought till we won
My uniform's my dirty overalls

This piece of land that I stand on
Is my battlefield and home
My plow and my hoe is my gun
Clothes don't make no difference at all
We are workers and fighters all
My uniform's my dirty overalls

Well, I'll give you my sweat
I'll give you my blood
And I'll give you your bread and your wine
Before I'd be any man's slave
I would rot down in my grave
And you can lay me down in my dirty overalls

Well, we settled here to stay
And I'll stick here all my days
I'll keep marching in my dirty overalls
