Текст песни:

This is one of a number of blues tunes written from a black perspective about the Cold War era and the Korean War (such as Eisenhower Blues and Korea Blues both by J.B. Lenoir). The song's protagonist seeks to crawl in a hole in the hopes that when he finally surfaces "there won't be no wars around." The brevity and directness of the message of this song (and others like it) were no doubt lost on the Truman and Eisenhower Administrations.
