Bruce Springsteen - The New Timer Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • He rode the rails since the great depression
  • Fifty years out on the skids
  • He said you dont cross nobody
  • Youll be all right out here kid.
  • Left my family in pennsylvania
  • Searchin for work I hit the road
  • I met frank in east texas
  • In a freight yard blown thru with snow
  • From new mexico to colorado california to the sea
  • Frank he showed me the ropes sir=20
  • Just till I could get back on my feet
  • I hoed sugar beets outside of firebaugh I picked the peaches from the
  • Marysville trees
  • They bunked us in a barn just like animals
  • Me and a hundred others just like me
  • We split up come the springtime
  • I never seen frank again
  • cept one rainy night he blew by me on a grainer
  • Shouted my name and disappeared in the rain and wind
  • They found him shot dead outside of stockton
  • His body lyin on a muddy hill
  • Nothin taken nothin stolen
  • Somebody killin just to kill
  • Late that summer was rollin thru the plains of texas
  • A vision passed before my eyes
  • A small house sittin trackside
  • With the glow of the saviors beautiful light
  • A woman stood cookin in the kitchen
  • Kid sat at a table with his old man
  • Now I wonder does my son miss me
  • Does he wonder where I am
  • Tonight I pick my campsite carefully
  • Outside the sacramento yard
  • Gather some wood and light a fire
  • In the early winter dark
  • Wind whistling cold I pull my coat around me
  • Heat some coffee and stare out into the black night
  • I lie awake I lie awake sir
  • With my machete by my side
  • My jesus your gracious love and mercy
  • Tonight Im sorry could not fill my heart
  • Like one good rifle
  • And the name of who I ought to kill
