[00:06.213] | 1921 was the year |
[00:09.519] | Seems like yesterday to me |
[00:12.987] | Let me tell you about what happened then |
[00:16.351] | Back in the mine country |
[00:19.774] | We were fightin’ hard to build a union |
[00:23.081] | ‘Cause at forty cents a ton |
[00:26.569] | There was no way to feed a family |
[00:29.917] | When the minin’ day was done |
[00:33.222] | |
[00:35.029] | The strike had lasted for a year |
[00:38.444] | When they shot down Smilin’ Sid |
[00:42.012] | He was a lawman who stood up for us miners |
[00:45.459] | That’s the only crime he ever did |
[00:48.774] | A hundred miners locked up with no trial |
[00:53.357] | There in Mingo-town |
[00:55.993] | But the last straw came in Sharples |
[00:59.244] | When they gunned the women down |
[01:03.273] | |
[01:04.605] | Now we’re marchin’ on to Mingo |
[01:07.868] | Ten thousand men and countin’ |
[01:11.452] | Here in the hills of West Virginia |
[01:17.736] | At the Battle of Blair Mountain |
[01:20.459] | |
[01:25.296] | We shouted through the hillsides |
[01:28.479] | In every union hall |
[01:32.149] | We’re marchin’ on to Mingo |
[01:35.456] | Teach them a lesson, once and all |
[01:39.581] | Commandeered every freight train |
[01:42.163] | To the Kentucky line |
[01:45.538] | Took every car that crossed our path |
[01:49.204] | And all the guns and ammo we could find |
[01:52.901] | |
[01:54.032] | The union leaders tried to stop us |
[01:57.445] | Mother Jones told us to turn back |
[02:00.740] | But we had learned ourselves from the gun thugs |
[02:04.247] | There’s a time to talk and a time to attack |
[02:07.854] | We had no leader, we didn’t need one |
[02:11.772] | We all knew the way through Logan County |
[02:14.739] | And we all knew once we got there |
[02:17.853] | We’re gonna hang Sheriff Chapin from a sour apple tree |
[02:22.727] | |
[02:23.183] | We’re marchin’ on to Mingo |
[02:26.267] | Ten thousand men and countin’ |
[02:29.861] | Here in the hills of West Virginia |
[02:35.921] | At the Battle of Blair Mountain |
[02:39.137] | |
[02:43.586] | For three days and nights we fought them |
[02:47.161] | The front was ten miles wide |
[02:50.502] | Every cop and scab in West Virginia |
[02:53.950] | Was there on the other side |
[02:57.386] | They dropped explosives from their airplanes |
[03:00.850] | Such a thing you never saw |
[03:04.280] | They shot us with machine guns |
[03:07.569] | It was the operator’s law |
[03:11.556] | |
[03:12.876] | We dug trenches and wore helmets |
[03:16.087] | That we brought from the Argonne |
[03:19.706] | All the way from France to Logan |
[03:23.041] | We fought from dusk to dawn |
[03:26.636] | President Harding sent in the Army |
[03:29.841] | And we left our line to them |
[03:33.371] | But the hills of West Virginia |
[03:36.944] | Will long remember when |
[03:40.649] | |
[03:42.042] | We were marchin’ on to Mingo |
[03:45.376] | Ten thousand men and countin’ |
[03:48.830] | Here in the hills of West Virginia |
[03:55.075] | At the Battle of Blair Mountain |

[03:55.075] | At the Battle of Blair Mountain |
[00:06.213] | 那是在1921年 |
[00:09.519] | 对我似乎就像昨天 |
[00:12.987] | 让我告诉你当时发生了什么 |
[00:16.351] | 回到那时的矿区 |
[00:19.774] | 我们为建立工会而斗争 |
[00:23.081] | 因为每吨40美分的价格 |
[00:26.569] | 当每天的工作结束后 |
[00:29.917] | 没办法养活一个家庭 |
[00:33.222] | |
[00:35.029] | 他们射杀斯米林·希德的时候 |
[00:38.444] | 罢工已经持续了一年 |
[00:42.012] | 他是个为我们矿工挺身而出的执法者 |
[00:45.459] | 这是他唯一犯过的罪 |
[00:48.774] | 一百名矿工未经审判被逮捕 |
[00:53.357] | 关在了明戈镇 |
[00:55.993] | 但最后一根稻草在沙普斯 |
[00:59.244] | 就在他们枪杀妇女的时候 |
[01:03.273] | |
[01:04.605] | 我们正在向明戈镇进军 |
[01:07.868] | 超过一万名矿工 |
[01:11.452] | 投身西弗吉尼亚的山丘 |
[01:17.736] | 加入这布莱尔山之战 |
[01:20.459] | |
[01:25.296] | 我们的呐喊穿过山坡 |
[01:28.479] | 回响在每个工会大厅 |
[01:32.149] | 我们正在向明戈镇进军 |
[01:35.456] | 一劳永逸给他们教训 |
[01:39.581] | 我们征用了每辆货运列车 |
[01:42.163] | 直到肯塔基州线 |
[01:45.538] | 征用了每一辆与我们相交的汽车 |
[01:49.204] | 还有我们能找到的所有枪支弹药 |
[01:52.901] | |
[01:54.032] | 工会领导人试图阻止我们 |
[01:57.445] | 琼斯妈妈劝说我们调头 |
[02:00.740] | 但我们已经从枪徒那里吸取教训 |
[02:04.247] | 是时候去反驳和进攻 |
[02:07.854] | 我们没有领袖,但也不需要 |
[02:11.772] | 我们都知道去洛根县的路 |
[02:14.739] | 我们都知道一旦到了那里 |
[02:17.853] | 要在酸苹果树上吊死查宾警长 |
[02:22.727] | |
[02:23.183] | 我们正在向明戈镇进军 |
[02:26.267] | 超过一万名矿工 |
[02:29.861] | 投身西弗吉尼亚的山丘 |
[02:35.921] | 加入这布莱尔山之战 |
[02:39.137] | |
[02:43.586] | 我们与他们战斗三天三夜 |
[02:47.161] | 战线有十英里宽 |
[02:50.502] | 西弗吉尼亚每个警察和工贼 |
[02:53.950] | 都在阵营另一边 |
[02:57.386] | 他们从飞机上投放炸药 |
[03:00.850] | 这是你从未见过的事物 |
[03:04.280] | 他们用机枪射击我们 |
[03:07.569] | 这就是老板的准则 |
[03:11.556] | |
[03:12.876] | 我们都挖着战壕 |
[03:16.087] | 头戴阿尔贡带来的头盔 |
[03:19.706] | 一路从法国到洛根县 |
[03:23.041] | 我们从黄昏打到黎明 |
[03:26.636] | 哈定总统派来了军队 |
[03:29.841] | 我们会把战线留给他们 |
[03:33.371] | 但西弗吉尼亚的山丘 |
[03:36.944] | 将会长久地记得当年 |
[03:40.649] | |
[03:42.042] | 我们曾经向明戈镇进军 |
[03:45.376] | 超过一万名矿工 |
[03:48.830] | 投身西弗吉尼亚的山丘 |
[03:55.075] | 加入这布莱尔山之战 |
