Bruce Springsteen: The Ghost Of Tom Joad

aus dem Album: Ghost Of Tom Joad

Songtext:
Men walkin' 'long the railroad tracks Magnetfolie A4
Goin' someplace there's no goin' back
Highway patrol choppers comin' up over the bridge
Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge Immobilien Berlin
Shelter line stretchin' 'round the corner
Welcome to the new world order
Families sleepin' in their cars in the southwest Kudzu
No home no job no peace no rest
The highway is alive tonight
But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes Tischläufer braun
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 wavepoint e.K.
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 Wellnesshotel Ostsee
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 Bergisch Gladbach Immobilien
Bathin' in the city aqueduct
The highway is alive tonight
Where it's headed everybody knows Grüner Tee Extrakt
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 Cordyceps sinensis
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 High Class Escort Wien
Wherever there's somebody fightin' for a place to stand
Or a decent job or a helpin' 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
With the ghost of old tom joad
