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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

California to the sea[00:01:10]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Outside the Sacramento yard[00:04:20]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Like one good rifle[00:05:27]

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