[00:00.18]Tom Joad, Pt. 1 - Woody Guthrie
[00:24.51]Tom Joad got out of the old McAlester Pen;
[00:28.21]
[00:29.19]There he got his parole.
[00:31.87]
[00:32.71]After four long years on a man killing charge,
[00:36.88]Tom Joad come a-walkin' down the road, poor boy,
[00:40.83]Tom Joad come a-walkin' down the road.
[00:43.73]
[00:44.99]Tom Joad, he met a truck driving man;
[00:48.51]
[00:49.46]There he caught him a ride.
[00:51.89]
[00:52.72]He said, "I just got loose from McAlester Pen
[00:56.65]On a charge called homicide,
[00:59.83]
[01:00.64]A charge called homicide."
[01:03.71]
[01:04.55]That truck rolled away in a cloud of dust;
[01:08.02]
[01:08.88]Tommy turned his face toward home.
[01:11.31]
[01:12.41]He met Preacher Casey, and they had a little drink,
[01:16.09]But they found that his family they was gone,
[01:19.45]
[01:20.22]He found that his family they was gone.
[01:22.90]
[01:24.04]He found his mother's old fashion shoe,
[01:27.86]
[01:28.46]Found his daddy's hat.
[01:30.77]
[01:31.92]And he found little Muley and Muley said,
[01:35.59]"They've been tractored out by the cats,
[01:38.48]
[01:39.85]They've been tractored out by the cats."
[01:42.51]
[01:44.64]Tom Joad walked down to the neighbor's farm,
[01:48.18]
[01:48.98]Found his family.
[01:51.32]
[01:52.39]They took Preacher Casey and loaded in a car,
[01:56.11]And his mother said, "We've got to get away."
[01:59.46]
[02:00.15]His mother said, "We've got to get away."
[02:02.74]
[02:04.97]Now, the twelve of the Joads made a mighty heavy load;
[02:08.96]But Grandpa Joad did cry.
[02:11.84]
[02:12.50]He picked up a handful of land in his hand,
[02:16.42]Said: "I'm stayin' with the farm till I die.
[02:19.53]
[02:20.50]Yes, I'm stayin' with the farm till I die."
[02:23.02]
[02:25.04]They fed him short ribs and coffee and soothing syrup;
[02:29.11]And Grandpa Joad did die.
[02:32.08]
[02:32.85]They buried Grandpa Joad by the side of the road,
[02:37.17]Grandma on the California side,
[02:39.42]
[02:40.51]They buried Grandma on the California side.
[02:43.54]
[02:45.47]They stood on a mountain and they looked to the west,
[02:48.98]And it looked like the promised land.
[02:51.73]
[02:53.07]That bright green valley with a river running through,
[02:56.72]There was work for every single hand, they thought,
[03:00.53]There was work for every single hand.
