lirik lagu joe glazer & bill friedland - old bolshevik's song
[verse 1]
when i was a lad in nineteen~six
i joined a band of bolsheviks
i read the manifesto and das kapital
i even learned to sing the internationale
(and he even learned to sing the internationale)
[chorus]
and i sang that song with a ring so true
that now i’m in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo
(and he sang that song with a ring so true
that now he’s in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo)
[verse 2]
when lenin and his boys insurrection made
i found myself on the barricade
on kerensky’s troops i turned my gun
and didn’t stop shooting ’til the reds had won
(and he didn’t stop shooting ’til the reds had won)
[chorus]
and i fired that gun with an aim so true
that now i’m in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo
(and he fired that gun with an aim so true
that now he’s in the prison of the gay~pay~oo)
[verse 3]
when nep was started, and lenin died
i found myself on trotsky’s side
all went well ’til ’28
and then i was forced to capitulate
(and then he was forced to capitulate)
[chorus]
and my capitulation had a ring so true
that now i’m in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo
(and his capitulation had a ring so true
that now he’s in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo)
[verse 4]
from then ’til now, i’ve had no peace
my steps have been dogged by the secret police
i denounced the opposition time and again;
denounced the opposition with tongue and pen
(he denounced the opposition with tongue and pen)
[chorus]
and my denunciation had a ring so true
that now i’m in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo
(and his denunciation had a ring so true
that now he’s in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo)
[verse 5]
now, diversionists all, wherever you may be
if you want to do as well as me:
confess to revolution and espionage
to wrecking railroads and sabotage
(to wrecking railroads and sabotage)
[chorus]
adhere to the line of lenin too
and you’ll end up in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo
(adhere to the line of lenin too
and you’ll end up in the prisons of the gay~pay~oo)
