It was the very edge of summer
the air was thin the sky more pale Dusty roads I remember Oh so well... The winds of future blew around us The owners came to tell their tale, feelin' like a piece of paper in a gale. Go West, go West. where there's fruit in every place a smile on every face... Go West, go West... Where there's work (so I'm told) California's never cold, so Go West... We sold part' our lives for 18 dollars... Bought a Hudson Super-6 Travelled on down the highway with no rest... Childhood memories behind us Grown-up feelings lie ahead, Asked my Dad why we're going and he said... Go West, Go West Where there's fruit in every place a smile on every face... Go West, Go West... Where there's work (so I'm told) California's never cold... so, Go West... |

You've made your decision to leave
there's no turning 'round. Now that you've got a reprieve, you must stand your ground. Some of the others are weak, so you must be strong $155 won't last very long... Ma, will we make out, do you think that this old car will last? Pa, is there some doubt, if our bad luck will stay in the past? Well I'm hoping it's so, but you can't really know til the end. They tell me that all things must change but they begin again. Listen to the motor and the road and how does it feel? Listen with your ears and your hands on the steering wheel. Ma, will we make out, do you think that this old car will last? Pa, is there some doubt, if our bad luck will stay in the past? Listen now boys, what your ma has told you there is no way we can tell... We've got to face this road together and have some faith in ourselves. Ma, will we make out, do you think that this old car will last? Pa, is there some doubt, if our bad luck will stay in the past? Ma, Will we make out...? |

Love, are you awake or are you sleeping?
I'm so excited I could die... starting out our lives. Must make some plans for the future now we need to settle down... make a home our own. What we gonna do when the baby comes? It won't be long. Love, am I awake or am I dreaming? I'm so excited I could cry. At times I'm so afraid. Say you'll get a job and never leave us... Though I know you'll make it right, Find a better life. What we gonna do when the baby comes? It won't be long. Don't you ever go, say you'll never leave Promise you won't ever leave. Don't leave me, We need you. Rose I will try to settle down but I can't tell the future Rose I will try to stay around but I don't know the future Oh Rose, you'll never know, just how much I need you so. Oh Rose, you'll never see Just how much you mean to me But Rose, This road is so hard and long and I just can't say. |

Well I'm walking this lonely street
but I'm far from bein' alone 'Cause everyone I meet, has nowhere to call home. So they move on from day to day, just to stand in a line. Well my mother she comes to me and begs me not to fight. For the sake of the family, I have to stay out of sight. So I move on from day to day, just to stand in a line. On the road again for a job I never find. People talking... as if we're not their kind. I got a handbill, says there's work up here. Left my homeland... and paid a price too dear. I've come to the end of the line there's too many men, despair in their faces... Each one of us hoping to find a life, a home, a dream... within the line. I ain't helpless -- I just need a hand. These are hard times, for every kind of man. I've come to the end of the line there's too many men, despair in their faces. Each one of us hoping to find a life, a home, a dream a place to be. (repeat) |
