The Ghost Of Tom Joad

Текст песни JOSE GONZALEZ - The Ghost Of Tom Joad <br/> (Bruce Springsteen Cover)<br /><br />Men walkin&#039; &#039;long the railroad tracks<br />Goin&#039; someplace there&#039;s no goin&#039; back<br />Highway patrol choppers comin&#039; up over the bridge<br />Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge<br />Shelter line stretchin&#039; &#039;round the corner<br />( )<br />Welcome to the new world order<br />Families sleepin&#039; in their cars in the southwest<br />No home no job no peace no rest<br /><br />Refrain: The highway is alive tonight<br />But nobody&#039;s kiddin&#039; nobody about where it goes<br />I&#039;m sittin&#039; down here in the campfire light<br />Searchin&#039; for the ghost of Tom Joad<br /><br />He pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag<br />Preacher lights up a butt and takes a drag<br />Waitin&#039; for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last<br />In a cardboard box &#039;neath the underpass<br />Got a one-way ticket to the promised land<br />You got a hole in your belly and gun in your hand<br />Sleepin&#039; on a pillow of solid rock<br />Bathin&#039; in the city aqueduct<br /><br />Refrain<br /><br />Now tom said mom, wherever there&#039;s a cop beatin&#039; a guy<br />Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries<br />Where there&#039;s a fight against the blood and hatred in the air<br />Look for me mom I&#039;ll be there<br />Wherever there&#039;s somebody fightin&#039; for a place to stand<br />Or a decent job or a helpin&#039; hand<br />Wherever somebody&#039;s strugglin&#039; to be free<br />Look in their eyes mom you&#039;ll see me.
