What Are The Lyrics For The Ballad of William Worthy By Phil Ochs?
Well, it's of a bold reporter whose story I will tell
He went down to the Cuban land, the nearest place to hell He'd been there many times before, but now the law does say The only way to Cuba is with the CIA William Worthy isn't worthy to enter our door Went down to Cuba, he's not American anymore But somehow it is strange to hear the State Department say You are living in the free world, in the free world you must stay Five thousand dollars or a five year sentence may well be For a man who had the nerve to think that travelin' is free Oh why'd he waste his time to see a dictator's reign When he could have seen democracy by travelin' on to Spain? William Worthy isn't worthy to enter our door Went down to Cuba, he's not American anymore But somehow it is strange to hear the State Department say You are living in the free world, in the free world you must stay So, come all you good travelers and fellow-travelers, too Yes, and travel all around the world, see every country through I'd surely like to come along and see what may be new But my passport's disappearing as I sing these words to you Well, there really is no need to travel to these evil lands Yes, and though the list grows larger you must try to understand Try hard not to be surprised if someday you should hear The whole world is off limits, visit Disneyland this year William Worthy isn't worthy to enter our door Went down to Cuba, he's not American anymore But somehow it is strange to hear the State Department say You are living in the free world, in the free world you must stay |
