The Ghost Of Tom Joad (汤姆周的灵魂) (Album Version) - Bruce Springsteen (布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀)

Men walkin long the railroad tracks

Goin someplace there's no goin back

Highway patrol choppers comin up over the bridge

Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge

Shelter line stretchin round the corner

Welcome to the new world order

Families sleepin in their cars in the southwest

No home no job no peace no rest

The highway is alive tonight

But nobodys 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 takes a drag

Waitin for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last

In a cardboard box neath the underpass

Got a one way ticket to the promised land

You got a hole in your belly and gun in your hand

Sleepin on a pillow of solid rock

Bathin in the city aqueduct

The highway is alive tonight

Where it's headed everybody knows

I'm sittin down here in the campfire light

Waitin on the ghost of tom joad

Now tom said mom wherever there's a cop beatin a guy

Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries

Where there's a fight against the blood and hatred in the air

Look for me mom I'll be there

Wherever there's somebody fightin for a place to stand

Or a decent job or a helpin hand

Wherever somebodys strugglin to be free

Look in their eyes mom youll see me

Well the highway is alive tonight

But nobodys kiddin nobody about where it goes

I'm sittin down here in the campfire light

With the ghost of old tom joad
