歌曲 | I Dreamed I Saw Phil Ochs Last Night |
歌手 | Billy Bragg |
专辑 | Volume I |
I dreamed I saw Phil Ochs last night | |
Alive as you and me | |
Says I to Phil, "You're ten years dead†| |
"I never died", says he | |
"I never died", says he | |
The music business killed you Phil | |
I ignored the things you said | |
And cast you out when fashions changed | |
Says Phil, "But I ain't dead" | |
Says Phil, "But I ain't dead" | |
The FBI harassed you Phil | |
They smeared you with their lies | |
Says he, "But they could never kill | |
What they could not compromise | |
I never compromised" | |
"Though fashion's changed and critics sneered | |
The songs that I have sung | |
Are just as true tonight as then | |
The struggle carries on | |
The struggle carries on" | |
When the song of freedom rings out loud | |
From valleys and from hills | |
Where people stand up for their rights | |
Phil Ochs is with us still | |
Phil Ochs inspires us still |
I dreamed I saw Phil Ochs last night | |

" I never died", says he | |
" I never died", says he | |
The music business killed you Phil | |
I ignored the things you said | |
And cast you out when fashions changed | |
Says Phil, " But I ain' t dead" | |
Says Phil, " But I ain' t dead" | |
The FBI harassed you Phil | |
They smeared you with their lies | |
Says he, " But they could never kill | |
What they could not compromise | |
I never compromised" | |

Are just as true tonight as then | |
The struggle carries on | |
The struggle carries on" | |
When the song of freedom rings out loud | |
From valleys and from hills | |
Where people stand up for their rights | |
Phil Ochs is with us still | |
