lirik lagu the ghost of tom joad – core
men walking ‘long the railroad tracks
going someplace, there’s no going back
highway patrol choppers coming up over the ridge
hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
shelter line stretching ’round the corner
welcome to the new world order
families sleeping in the cars in the southwest
no home, no job, no peace, no rest
well the highway is alive tonight
but n-body’s kidding n-body about where it goes
i’m sitting down here in the campfire light
searching for the ghost of tom joad
he pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag
preacher lights up a b-tt and he takes a drag
waiting for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last
in a cardboard box ‘neath the underp-ss
you got a one-way ticket to the promised land
you got a hole in your belly and a gun in your hand
sleeping on a pillow of solid rock
bathing in the city’s aqueduct
go!
well the highway is alive tonight
where it’s headed everybody knows
i’m sitting down here in the campfire light
waiting on the ghost of tom joad
now tom said, “mom, wherever there’s a cop beating 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 somebody’s fighting for a place to stand
or a decent job or a helping hand
wherever somebody’s struggling to be free
look in their eyes, ma, and you’ll see me”
yeah!
the highway is alive tonight
where it’s headed everybody knows
i’m sitting down here in the campfire light
with the ghost of old tom joad
