《The New Timer(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] The New Timer (Album Version) - Bruce Springsteen (布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀)

[00:00:07] He rode the rails since the Great Depression

[00:00:14] Fifty years out on the skids

[00:00:21] He said "You don't cross nobody

[00:00:28] You'll be all right out here kid "

[00:00:35] Left my family in Pennsylvania

[00:00:42] Searchin' for work I hit the road

[00:00:49] I met Frank in East Texas

[00:00:56] In a freight yard blown through with snow

[00:01:03] From New Mexico to Colorado

[00:01:10] California to the sea

[00:01:17] Frank he showed me the ropes sir

[00:01:24] Just till I could get back on my feet

[00:01:31] I hoed sugar beets outside of Firebaugh

[00:01:38] I picked the peaches from the Marysville trees

[00:01:44] They bunked us in a barn just like animals

[00:01:52] Me and a hundred others just like me

[00:02:06] We split up come the springtime

[00:02:13] I never seen Frank again

[00:02:20] 'Cept one rainy night he blew by me on a grainer

[00:02:27] Shouted my name and disappeared in the rain and wind

[00:02:35] They found him shot dead outside of Stockton

[00:02:41] His body lyin' on a muddy hill

[00:02:48] Nothin' taken nothin' stolen

[00:02:55] Somebody killin' just to kill

[00:03:10] Late that summer I was rollin' through the plains of Texas

[00:03:17] A vision passed before my eyes

[00:03:24] A small house sittin' trackside

[00:03:31] With the glow of the savior's beautiful light

[00:03:38] A woman stood cookin' in the kitchen

[00:03:45] Kid sat at a table with his old man

[00:03:52] Now I wonder does my son miss me

[00:03:59] Does he wonder where I am

[00:04:13] Tonight I pick my campsite carefully

[00:04:20] Outside the Sacramento yard

[00:04:28] Gather some wood and light a fire

[00:04:34] In the early winter dark

[00:04:41] Wind whistling cold I pull my coat around me

[00:04:48] Heat some coffee and stare out into the black night

[00:04:55] I lie awake I lie awake sir

[00:05:02] With my machete by my side

[00:05:10] My Jesus your gracious love and mercy

[00:05:17] Tonight I'm sorry could not fill my heart

[00:05:27] Like one good rifle

[00:05:31] And the name of who I ought to kill
