[00:00.000] 作曲 : Joe Hill
[00:04.801]If you all will shut your trap,
[00:06.900]I will tell you ’bout a chap,
[00:09.142]That was broke and up against it, too, for fair
[00:13.008]He was not the kind that shirk,
[00:15.508]He was looking hard for work,
[00:17.882]But he heard the same old story everywhere:
[00:22.150]Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
[00:26.617]Nothing doing here for you;
[00:30.594]If I catch you ’round again,
[00:32.939]You will wear the ball and chain,
[00:34.865]Keep on tramping, that’s the best thing you can do.
[00:43.668]He walked up and down the street,
[00:45.857]‘Till the shoes fell off his feet,
[00:47.914]In a house he spied a lady cooking stew,
[00:52.092]And he said, “How do you do,
[00:54.578]May I chop some wood for you?”
[00:56.693]What the lady told him made him feel so blue:
[01:01.246]Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
[01:05.618]Nothing doing here for you;
[01:09.543]If I catch you ’round again,
[01:11.778]You will wear the ball and chain,
[01:13.927]Keep on tramping, that’s the best thing you can do.
[01:26.556]Finally came that happy day
[01:28.935]When his life did pass away,
[01:31.190]He was sure he’d go to heaven when he died,
[01:35.641]When he reached the pearly gate,
[01:37.602]Santa Peter, mean old skate,
[01:39.818]Slammed the gate right in his face and loudly cried:
[01:44.653]Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
[01:48.509]Nothing doing here for you;
[01:52.772]If I catch you ’round again,
[01:54.997]You will wear the ball and chain,
[01:57.157]Keep on tramping, that’s the best thing you can do.
[02:19.219]In despair he went to Hell,
[02:21.138]With the Devil for to dwell,
[02:23.112]For the reason he’d no other place to go.
[02:27.087]And he said, “I’m full of sin,
[02:29.312]So for Christ’s sake, let me in!”
[02:31.719]But the Devil said, “Oh, beat it! You’re a ‘bo!”
[02:36.492]Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
[02:40.377]Nothing doing here for you;
[02:44.567]If I catch you ’round again,
[02:46.971]You will wear the ball and chain,
[02:49.005]Keep on tramping,Keep on tramping
[02:53.420]Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
[02:57.836]Nothing doing here for you;
[03:01.837]If I catch you ’round again,
[03:04.204]You will wear the ball and chain,
[03:06.423]Keep on tramping, that’s the best thing you can do.
[03:11.101]Keep on tramping, Get out of here now

作曲 : Joe Hill
If you all will shut your trap,
I will tell you ’bout a chap,
That was broke and up against it, too, for fair
He was not the kind that shirk,
He was looking hard for work,
But he heard the same old story everywhere:
Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
Nothing doing here for you;
If I catch you ’round again,
You will wear the ball and chain,
Keep on tramping, that’s the best thing you can do.
He walked up and down the street,
‘Till the shoes fell off his feet,
In a house he spied a lady cooking stew,
And he said, “How do you do,
May I chop some wood for you?”
What the lady told him made him feel so blue:
Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
Nothing doing here for you;
If I catch you ’round again,
You will wear the ball and chain,
Keep on tramping, that’s the best thing you can do.
Finally came that happy day
When his life did pass away,
He was sure he’d go to heaven when he died,
When he reached the pearly gate,
Santa Peter, mean old skate,
Slammed the gate right in his face and loudly cried:
Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
Nothing doing here for you;
If I catch you ’round again,
You will wear the ball and chain,
Keep on tramping, that’s the best thing you can do.
In despair he went to Hell,
With the Devil for to dwell,
For the reason he’d no other place to go.
And he said, “I’m full of sin,
So for Christ’s sake, let me in!”
But the Devil said, “Oh, beat it! You’re a ‘bo!”
Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
Nothing doing here for you;
If I catch you ’round again,
You will wear the ball and chain,
Keep on tramping,Keep on tramping
Tramp, tramp, tramp, keep on a-tramping,
Nothing doing here for you;
If I catch you ’round again,
You will wear the ball and chain,
Keep on tramping, that’s the best thing you can do.
Keep on tramping, Get out of here now
