Текст песни: Belt-Line Girl + перевод

I stood on the station platform

And looked at the lonesome track

The train had gone around the curve

The train that might never come back

For it carried my soldier sweetheart away

The one I loved so true

My heart was sad, but I did not weep

I thought of the work to do

Joe had gone to the fighting front

And he left his job behind

Now I must step into his place

On the long assembly line

I said I’ll learn to build a ship

I’ll learn to build a plane

For the faster we speed this belt line, girls

The quicker our boys return

If you think that danger is far away

And cannot reach our shore

Go ask the wives of MacArthur’s men

They’ll tell you about this war

Go ask the widows of the Pearl Harbor boys

Our heroines brave and fine

You’ll find them at work in the training schools

And on the assembly line

If a thousand men leave a thousand jobs

To go and fight the foe

Our factory wheels would slacken their speed

And the belts would move too slow

But when a thousand hard working girls

Step in and take a hand

Out roll the tanks and the planes and guns

And there’s freedom in the land
