  • 作词 : Springsteen
    My name is Joe Roberts I work for the state
    I'm a sergeant out of Perrineville barracks number 8
    I always done an honest job as honest as I could
    I got a brother named Franky and Franky ain't no good
    Now ever since we was young kids it's been the same come down
    I get a call on the short wave Franky's in trouble downtown
    Well if it was any other man, I'd put him straight away
    But when it's your brother sometimes you look the other way
    Yeah, me and Franky laughin' and drinkin' nothin' feels better than blood on blood
    Takin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
    I catch him when he's strayin' like any brother would
    Man turns his back on his family well he just ain't no good
    Well Franky went in the army back in 1965 I got a farm deferment settled down took Maria for my wife
    But them wheat prices kept on droppin' 'til it was like we were gettin' robbed
    Franky came home in '68 and me I took this job
    Yeah we're laughin' and drinkin' nothin' feels better than blood on blood
    Takin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
    I catch him when he's strayin', teach him how to walk that line
    Man turns his back on his family he ain't no friend of mine
    ...
    Well, the night was like any other, I got a call 'bout quarter to nine
    There was trouble in a roadhouse out on the Michigan line
    There was a kid lyin' on the floor lookin' bad, bleedin' hard from his head
    There was a girl cryin' at a table, and it was Frank they said
    Well I went out and I jumped in my car and I hit the lights
    Well, I must've done 110 through Michigan County that night
    It was out at the crossroads down round Willow Bank
    Seen a Buick with Ohio plates behind the wheel was Frank
    Well I chased him through them county roads 'til a sign said Canadian border 5 miles from here
    I pulled over the side of the highway and watched his taillights disappear
    Me and Franky laughin' and drinkin' nothin' feels better than blood on blood
    Takin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
    I catch him when he's strayin' like any brother would
    Man turns his back on his family well he just ain't no good
