The Biggest Thing That Man Has Ever Done (CRC version)

Woody Guthrie

[Verse 1]
I'm just a lonesome traveler, the great historical bum
Highly educated from history I have come
I built the Rock of Ages, was in the year of one
And that was about the biggest thing that man had ever done

[Verse 2]
I was straw boss on the pyramids and Tower of Babel, too
Opened up the ocean, let the migrant children through
I fought a million battles, and I never lost a one
That was about the biggest thing that man had ever done

[Verse 3]
I clumb the rocky canyon where thе Columbia River rolls
Seen the salmon leapin', thе rapids and the falls
The big Grand Coulee Dam in the state of Washington
Is just about the biggest thing that man has ever done

[Verse 4]
Three times the size of Boulder or the highest pyramid
Makes the Tower of Babel a plaything for a kid
From the risin' of the river to the settin' of the sun
The Coulee is the biggest thing that man had ever done

[Verse 5]
I'd better quit my talkin', 'cause I told you all I know
But please remember, pardner, wherever you may go
I've been from here to yonder, I've been from sun to sun
Coulee Dam is the biggest thing that man has ever done

[Verse 6]
There's a man across the ocean, boys, I guess you know him well
His name is Adolf Hitler, we'll blow his soul to Hell
We'll kicked him in the panzers and put him on the run
That'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done
