제목 The Ghost of Tom Joad
가수 Rage Against The Machine
Men walkin' 'long the railroad tracks
(철로를 따라 걷고 있는 사람들)
Goin' someplace, there's no goin' back
(어딘가로 가고 있지만, 되돌아갈 순 없어)
Highway Patrol choppers comin' up over the ridge
(고속도로 순찰 헬리콥터가 산봉우리 위로 올라오고 있고)
Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
(다리 아래의 캠프파이어 위에 있는 뜨거운 수프)
Shelter line stretchin' 'round the corner
(모퉁이를 돌아 뻗어있는 은신처의 경계선)
Welcome to the New World Order
(새로운 세계의 질서에 편입된 걸 환영한다)
Families sleepin' in their cars in the Southwest
(가족들은 서남쪽의 자기들 차 안에서 자고 있어)
No home No job No peace No rest
(집도 없고 직업도 없고 평화도 없고 휴식도 없고)
The highway is alive tonight
(오늘 밤 고속도로는 살아 있어)
But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes
(하지만 그 누구도 속이지 않고 그 누구도 돛을 돌리지 않아)
I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
(난 여기 캠프파이어 빛 안에 앉아 있어)
Searchin' for the Ghost of Tom Joad
(탐 조드의 허깨비를 찾아 헤메며)
He pulls 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
The highway is alive tonight
But where it's headed everybody knows
I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
Waitin' on the Ghost of Tom Joad
Now Tom said, "Mom, wherever there's a cop beatin' a guy
Wherever a hungry new born baby cries
Where there's a fight 'gainst 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
The highway is alive tonight
But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes
I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
With the Ghost of Old Tom Joad
