lirik lagu i took the great canal – bob connelly
if there’s something you want
but there’s something can’t buy
although your money speaks loud
don’t wait you a day, go to congress and say:
“i took it, i took it, i took it.”
now the panama c-n-l
it is ours forever more
i don’t give a d-mn if they don’t like it
the panama c-n-l
it is ours forever more
and let the dirty brown contegos fight it
we bought the dead from france
but colombia said no
“the french don’t own the land
for the leased it from ourselves
and they had no right to sell
this isthmus of panama is ours.”
so we offered them a sum
to sell us of the land
and to pay them rent each year
but colombia had doubts
which made teddy rave and shout
and jump a good five feet
up in the air
now the panama c-n-l
it is ours forever more
i don’t give a d-mn if they don’t like it
the panama c-n-l
it is ours forever more
and let the dirty brown contegos fight it
now teddy wrote that day
to secretary hay
he said “i’ll send the army
and we’ll teach them jolly quick
not to fool with my big stick
and they’ll crawl, yes they’ll crawl
for forgiveness.”
but teddy’s lucky day
was not so far away
and he didn’t need the army
for varilla and his band
were rebelling in that land
and teddy had to take the side of freedom
the panama c-n-l
it is ours forever more
i don’t give a d-mn if they don’t like it
the panama c-n-l
it is ours forever more
and let the dirty brown contegos fight it
