Deliver the Goods |
It’s gonna take everybody to win this war |
The butcher and the baker and the clerk in the store |
The guys who sail the ships, and the guys who run the trains |
And the farmer raisin' wheat upon the Kansas plains |
The butcher, the baker, the tinker and the tailor |
Will all work behind the soldier and the sailor |
We’re workin' in the cities, we’re workin' in the woods |
And we’ll all work together to deliver the goods |
Now, me and my boss, we never did agree |
If a thing helped him then it didn’t help me |
But when a burglar tries to bust into your house |
You stop fighting with the landlord and throw him out |
I got a new job and I’m workin' overtime |
Turning out tanks on the assembly line |
Gotta crank up the factories like the President said |
Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead |
I bet this tank will look mighty fine |
Punching holes in Mr. Hitler’s line |
And if Adolph wakes up after the raid |
He’ll find every piece of shrapnel says «„U.S.A.“» |
From New York City to Frisco Bay |
We’re speedin' up production everyday |
And every time a wheel goes around |
It carries Mr. Hitler to the burying ground |
