Tom Joad(Part 2) - Woody Guthrie (伍迪·格思里)
The Joads rolled away to Jungle Camp
There they cooked a stew
And the hungry little kids of the Jungle Camp
Said: 'We'd like to have some too '
Said: 'We'd like to have some too '
Now a Deputy Sheriff fired loose at a man
Shot a woman in the back
Before he could take his aim again
Preacher Casey dropped him in his track horborn
Preacher Casey dropped him in his track
They handcuffed Casey
And they took him to Jail
And then he got away
And he met Tom Joad on the old river bridge
And these few words he did say poor boy
These few words he did say
'I preached for the Lord a mighty long time
Preached about the rich and the poor
Us working folks all got to get together
Cause we ain't got a chance anymore
We ain't got a chance anymore '
Now the Deputies come
And Tom and Casey run
To the bridge
Where the water run down
But the vigilante they hit Casey with a club
They laid Preacher Casey on the ground
Poor Preacher Casey
They laid Preacher Casey on the ground
Tom Joad he grabbed that Deputy's club
Hit him over the head
Tom Joad took flight in the dark rainy night
And a Deputy and a Preacher
Lying dead two men
A Deputy and a Preacher lying dead
Tom run back where his mother was asleep
He woke her up out of bed
And he kissed goodbye
To the mother that he loved
Said what Preacher Casey said Tom Joad
He said what Preacher Casey said
'Everybody might be just one big soul
Well it looks that a way to me
Everywhere that you look in the day or night
That's where I'm gonna be Ma
That's where I'm gonna be
Wherever little children are hungry and cry
Wherever people ain't free
Wherever men are fighting for their rights
That's where I'm gonna be Ma
That's where I'm a gonna be
