歌詞

Johnny was a Cherokee cowboy Long braids hangin' from his hat He wrangled up on the Little S Ranch And he rode with my Uncle jack He sat like a shadow in the saddle And wrote poetry with his rope He had a light hand for the horses And a smile for us little folk Johnny and Jack come a-callin' Took my brothers, and my sisters and I To the Hale County picnic Ought-seven, Fourth of July They had a big tent and a little brass band Box lunches on the lawn When they raised Old Glory to the top of the pole We all sang the Freedom Song Oh, say can you see? Johnny why aren't you singing? Oh, say can you see? Johnny is there something wrong? Oh, say can you see? Johnny where are you going? Johnny why don't you stay And help us sing the Freedom song? The men all whipped their hats off And they hollered and whooped it up But Johnny just stood their silent With a hurt and angry look Then his face got soft and he kneeled right down And he sounded plumb wore out When he said, "Little partner, it's not my freedom That they're singin about" Oh, say can you see? Johnny why aren't you singing? Oh, say can you see? Johnny is there something wrong? Oh, say can you see? Johnny where are you going? Johnny won't you stay And help us sing the Freedom song? He mounted his horse in a couple of strides And I watched as he rode away Accross the plains of the Land of the Free "Til he vanished in the Home of the Brave Since then I've sung the Freedom Song A thousand times or more And every time I wonder just whose freedom It is we're singing for? Oh, say can you see? Johnny why aren't you singing? Oh, say can you see? Johnny is there something wrong? Oh, say can you see? Johnny where are you going? Johnny won't you stay And help us sing the Freedom song? Oh, say can you see? Johnny why aren't you singing?
