Jose Gonzalez - The ghost of Tom Joad

Tekst :

Men walkin long the railroad tracks
Goin someplace there s no goin back
Highway patrol choppers comin up over the bridge
Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
Shelter line stretchin round the corner
Welcome to the new world order
Families sleepin in their cars in the southwest
No home no job no peace no rest

Refrain: The highway is alive tonight
But nobody s kiddin nobody about where it goes
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
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
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
Bathin in the city aqueduct

Refrain

Now tom said mom, wherever there s a cop beatin 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 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.

    Lass mich frei

    (Lass mich frei - Lass mich los - Lass mich frei)

    Ich weiß du liebst mich
    Doch du verstehst nicht
    Mein Leben ist mein Leben das nur mir gehört
    Hast zu oft verboten
    An mir rum erzogen
    Du hast mir viel zu selten...

    When i come to you

    When i m all alone
    when i m feelin blue
    no one understands me, baby
    nobody but you

    through all the sleepless nights
    and the rainy day till the sun is nowhere in view
    the only way i make it through is...

    So right

    There was nothing I could do boy
    I tell you from the heart
    Right from the start
    It wasn t me and you
    And if I m gonna be with you boy
    I m tired of all the games
    You know we want the same
    What am I to do?

    Breaking through
    Into the waters heat
    It won t be long
    It s impossible to understand
    There s no way of knowing
    And no way out
    Take a breath
    And tear it out (up? )
    It s not enough
    As the sky gets nearer
    So does time
    You ll never know
    What you left behind
    The only way is down
    As the sky gets...

    To będzie o nas stojących po tej samej stronie
    I z własnej woli próbujących coś sobie przekazać
    Fragmenty życia ulotne chwile
    Będące dla nas wszystkim dniem powszednim
    To jest też o tym o czym każdy próbuje zapomnieć
    Lub też próbuje ukrywać to przed sobą śmiech,...
