Tom Joad Part I - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

Tom Joad got out of the old McAlester Pen;[00:00:25]

There he got his parole [00:00:29]

After four long years on a man killing charge [00:00:32]

Tom Joad come a-walkin' down the road poor boy [00:00:37]

Tom Joad come a-walkin' down the road [00:00:41]

Tom Joad he met a truck driving man;[00:00:44]

There he caught him a ride [00:00:49]

He said "I just got loose from McAlester Pen[00:00:52]

On a charge called homicide [00:00:56]

A charge called homicide "[00:01:00]

That truck rolled away in a cloud of dust;[00:01:04]

Tommy turned his face toward home [00:01:08]

He met Preacher Casey and they had a little drink [00:01:12]

But they found that his family they was gone [00:01:16]

He found that his family they was gone [00:01:19]

He found his mother's old-fashion shoe [00:01:23]

Found his daddy's hat [00:01:28]

And he found little Muley and Muley said [00:01:31]

"They've been tractored out by the cats [00:01:35]

They've been tractored out by the cats "[00:01:39]

Tom Joad walked down to the neighbor's farm [00:01:44]

Found his family [00:01:48]

They took Preacher Casey and loaded in a car [00:01:50]

And his mother said "We've got to get away "[00:01:55]

His mother said "We've got to get away "[00:01:59]

Now the twelve of the Joads made a mighty heavy load;[00:02:04]

But Grandpa Joad did cry [00:02:08]

He picked up a handful of land in his hand [00:02:12]

Said: "I'm stayin' with the farm till I die [00:02:16]

Yes I'm stayin' with the farm till I die "[00:02:19]

They fed him short ribs and coffee and soothing syrup;[00:02:24]

And Grandpa Joad did die [00:02:28]

They buried Grandpa Joad by the side of the road [00:02:32]

Grandma on the California side [00:02:36]

They buried Grandma on the California side [00:02:39]

They stood on a mountain and they looked to the west [00:02:44]

And it looked like the promised land [00:02:48]

That bright green valley with a river running through [00:02:52]

There was work for every single hand they thought [00:02:56]

There was work for every single hand[00:03:00]
