Woody Guthrie Lyrics
"Lindbergh"
Mr. Charlie Lindbergh, he flew to old Berlin
Got him a big Iron Cross, and he flew right back again
To Washington, Washington
Mrs. 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 Wheeler, Clark, and Nye
In Washington, Washington"
Hitler wrote to Lindy, said "Do your very worst"
Lindy started an outfit that he called America First
In Washington, Washington
All around the country, Lindbergh he did fly
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 the walk and they come on the run
In Washington, Washington
Yonder comes Father Coughlin, wearin' the silver chain
Cash on his stomach and Hitler on the brain
In Washington, Washington
Mister John L. Lewis would sit and straddle the fence
His daughter signed with Lindbergh, and we ain't seen her since
In Washington, Washington
Hitler said to Lindy: "Stall 'em all you can
Gonna bomb Pearl Harbor with the help of old Japan"
In Washington, Washington
Then on a December mornin', the bombs come from Japan
Wake Island and Pearl Harbor, kill fifteen hundred men
Washington, Washington
Now Lindy tried to join the army, but they wouldn't let 'im in
'Fraid he'd sell to Hitler a few more million men
In Washington, Washington
So I'm gonna tell you people, if Hitler's gonna be beat
The common working people have 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
