HOW CAN A POOR MAN STAND SUCH TIMES AND LIVE

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN

Paroles et musique :Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen

Capo III

Tonalité :

Well the do ctor comes 'round here with his face all b right

And he says "in a little while you'll be al right"

All he gi ves is a humbug pill a dose of do pe and a great big bill

Tell me ho w can a poor man stan d such times and live ?

He says "me and my old school pals had some might hi gh times down here

And what happened to you poor black folks well it just ain't f air"

He took a look arou nd gave a little pep talk said "I'm wi th you" then he took a littl e walk

Tell me ho w can a poor man stand such times and live ?

There's bodies floatin' on Canal and the leve es gone to He ll

Martha get me my sixteen gauge and some dry shell s

Them who's got got out of town

And them who ain' t got left to dro wn

Tell me ho w can a poor man stand such times and live ?

I got family scattered from Texas all the way to Baltim ore

And I ain't got no home in this world no more

Gonna be a jud gment that's a fact a righteous trai n rollin' down th is track

Tell me ho w can a poor man stand such times and live ?
