Trade Winds

Song by Mason Williams<br /><br> Dinner's on the table, just beans but no coffee<br> Fill up on bread 'cos there's no meat and there's no gravy<br> Daddy says there's no work no work to do my friend<br> So come on now my children<br> Off to bed for the light is fading<br> I don't believe the trade winds blowing will set you free<br> I do believe the free trade wind is roaring toward you and me<br> Clever Chinese fingers busy themselves tonight<br> Working dawn to dusk sun is setting sun is rising<br> On your land of milk and honey, yes I know it ain't funny<br> So take it easy in your Cadillac<br> I only hope it's built to last<br> I don't believe the trade wind blowing will set you free<br> I do believe the trade wind roaring is no more than<br> An icy breeze for you and me -<br> Do you remember a time when you called out the names<br> Of those who never seem to give a damn for your flag<br> Or for your country you blamed the reds you blamed<br> The unions you blamed the immigrants and Jews<br> And you'd better run it by a priest<br> Cos no one cares and no one's listening -<br> I do believe - I don't believe the trade winds<br> Are roaring for you and me<br> <br>
