The Ghost Of Tom |
Interprété par Bruce Springsteen. |
Man walkin long the railroad tracks Goin some place there's no going back Highway patrol choppers cornin up over the ridge Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge Shelter line stretchin round the corner Welcome to the new wolrd oder Families sleepin' in their cars in the Southwest No home no job no peace no rest the highway is alive tonight but nobody's kiddin nobody about where it goes i'm sittin down here in the campfire light searchin' for the ghost of tom joad he pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag Preacher lights up a butt and talks a drag Waitin' for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last In a cardboard book neath the underpass Got a one-way ticket to the promised land You got hole in your belly and a gun in your hand Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock Bathin in the city aquaeduct The highway is alive tonight Where it's headed everybody knows I'm sittin down here in the campfire light Searchin for the ghost of Tom Joad Now Tom said Mom wherever there's cop beatin a guy Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries Where there's a fight gainst blood and hatred in the air Look for me Mom I'll be there Wherever there's somebady fightin for a place to stand Or decent job or helping hand Wherever somebody's strugglin to be free Look in their eyes, mom you'll see me Well the highway is alive tonight But nobody's kiddin nobody about where it goes I'm sittin down here in the campfire light Searchin for the ghost of Tom Joad |
