Men walking 'long the railroad tracks
人们在铁轨上穿梭
Going someplace and there's no going back
去往某个地方再也回不去了
Highway patrol choppers coming up over the ridge
公路巡逻队的直升机从山脊上飞来
Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
在桥下的篝火上喝着热汤
Shelter line stretching 'round the corner
庇护所一直延伸到街角
Welcome to the new world order
欢迎来到新的世界秩序
Families sleeping in their cars in the southwest
一家人睡在西南方的车里
No home, no job, no peace, no rest
没有家没有工作没有安宁没有休息
Well the highway is alive tonight
今晚公路充满活力
But nobody's kidding nobody about where it goes
但没人对未来的走向开玩笑
I'm sitting down here in the campfire light
我坐在篝火旁
Searching for the ghost of Tom Joad
寻找汤姆·乔德的鬼魂
He pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag
他从睡袋里拿出一本祈祷书
Preacher lights up a butt and he takes a drag
牧师点燃激情他尽情放纵
Waiting for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last
等待着最后一个出现在你的面前
In a cardboard box 'neath the underpass
藏在地下通道下的纸箱里
Got a one-way ticket to the promised land
我有一张去往乐土的单程票
You got a hole in your belly and gun in your hand
你的腹部伤痕累累手里拿着枪
Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock
睡在坚硬的枕头上
Bathing in the city aqueduct
沐浴在城市的水渠里
And the highway is alive tonight
今晚公路充满活力
Where it's headed everybody knows
每个人都知道结局会怎样
I'm sitting down here in the campfire light
我坐在篝火旁
Waiting on the ghost of Tom Joad
等待着TomJoad的鬼魂
Tom said, "Mom, wherever there's a cop beating a guy
汤姆说妈妈只要有警察打人
Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries
饥饿的新生婴儿在哪里哭泣
Where there's a fight against the blood and hatred in the air
到处都是血与仇恨
Look for me, Mom, I'll be there
找我妈妈我会来的
Where there's somebody fighting for a place to stand
有人在为一个立足之地苦苦挣扎
Or a decent job or a helping hand
或是一份体面的工作或是伸出援手
Wherever somebody's struggling to be free
有人在为自由而挣扎
Look in their eyes, Mom, you'll see me"
看着他们的眼睛妈妈你会看到我的
The highway is alive tonight
今晚公路充满活力
But nobody's kidding nobody about where it goes
但没人对未来的走向开玩笑
I'm sitting down here in the campfire light
我坐在篝火旁
With the ghost of old Tom Joad
就像老汤姆·乔德的灵魂
