《Tom Joad Pt. I》歌词

[00:00:00] Tom Joad Pt. I - Woody Guthrie

[00:00:25] Tom Joad got out of the old McAlester Pen;

[00:00:30] There he got his parole

[00:00:33] After four long years on a man killing charge

[00:00:37] Tom Joad come a-walkin' down the road

[00:00:40] Poor boy

[00:00:41] Tom Joad come a-walkin' down the road

[00:00:45] Tom Joad he met a truck driving man;

[00:00:50] There he caught him a ride

[00:00:53] He said "I just got loose from McAlester Pen

[00:00:57] On a charge called homicide

[00:01:01] A charge called homicide "

[00:01:05] That truck rolled away in a cloud of dust;

[00:01:09] Tommy turned his face toward home

[00:01:13] He met Preacher Casey and they

[00:01:15] Had a little drink

[00:01:17] But they found that his family they was gone

[00:01:21] He found that his family they was gone

[00:01:25] He found his mother's old fashion shoe

[00:01:29] Found his daddy's hat

[00:01:32] And he found little Muley and Muley said

[00:01:36] "They've been tractored out by the cats

[00:01:40] They've been tractored out by the cats "

[00:01:45] Tom Joad walked down to the neighbor's farm

[00:01:50] Found his family

[00:01:53] They took Preacher Casey and loaded in a car

[00:01:57] And his mother said "We've got to get away "

[00:02:01] His mother said "We've got to get away "

[00:02:06] Now the twelve of the Joads

[00:02:07] Made a mighty heavy load;

[00:02:10] But Grandpa Joad did cry

[00:02:13] He picked up a handful of land in his hand

[00:02:17] Said: "I'm stayin' with the farm till I die

[00:02:21] Yes I'm stayin' with the farm till I die "

[00:02:26] They fed him short ribs and coffee

[00:02:28] And soothing syrup;

[00:02:30] And Grandpa Joad did die

[00:02:33] They buried Grandpa Joad by the side

[00:02:37] Of the road

[00:02:38] Grandma on the California side

[00:02:41] They buried Grandma on the California side

[00:02:46] They stood on a mountain and they

[00:02:48] Looked to the west

[00:02:50] And it looked like the promised land

[00:02:54] That bright green valley with a river

[00:02:56] Running through

[00:02:58] There was work for every single hand

[00:03:01] They thought

[00:03:01] There was work for every single hand
