    Lyrics:Bruce Springsteen Music:Bruce Springsteen
    He rode the rails since the great depression
    Fifty years out on the skids
    He said you don't cross nobody
    You'll 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 through with snow
    From New Mexico to Colorado
    California to the sea
    Frank he showed me the ropes, sir
    Just till I could get back on my feet
    I hoed sugar beets outside of Firebaugh
    I picked the peaches from the Marysville tree
    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 grainer
    Shouted my name and disappeared in the rain and the wind
    They found him shot dead outside Stockton
    His body lyin' on a muddy hill
    Nothin' taken, nothin' stolen
    Somebody killed him just to kill
    Late that summer I was rollin' through the plains of Texas
    A vision passed before my eyes A small house sittin' trackside
    With the glow of the saviours beautiful light
    A woman stood cookin' in the kitchen
    Kid sat at the 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
    Make 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 I'm sorry could not fill my heart
    Like one good rifle And the name of who I ought to kill
