This Is The Second Half Of The Song TOM JOAD. There Is a Version Of The Song That Begins Here. [Verse 1] Now a deputy sheriff fired loose at a man Shot a woman in the back. Before he could take his aim again Preacher Casey dropped him in his track poor boy Preacher Casey dropped him in his track. [Verse 2] They handcuffed Casey and they took him in jail; And then he got away. And he met Tom Joad on the old river bridge And these few words he did say poor boy These few words he did say. [Verse 3] "I preached for the Lord a mighty long time Preached about the rich and the poor. Us workin’ folkses all get together ’Cause we ain’t got a chance anymore. We ain’t got a chance anymore." [Verse 4] Now the deputies come and Tom and Casey run To the bridge where the water run down. But the vigilante thugs hit Casey with a club They laid Preacher Casey on the ground poor Casey They laid Preacher Casey on the ground. [Verse 5] Tom Joad he grabbed that deputy’s club Hit him over the head. Tom Joad took flight in the dark rainy night And a deputy and a preacher lying dead two men A deputy and a preacher lying dead. [Verse 6] Tom run back where his mother was asleep; He woke her up out of bed. An’ he kissed goodbye to the mother that he loved Said what Preacher Casey said Tom Joad He said what Preacher Casey said. [Verse 7] "Ever’body might be just one big soul Well it looks that a-way to me. Everywhere that you look in the day or night That’s where I’m a-gonna be Ma That’s where I’m a-gonna be. [Verse 8] Wherever little children are hungry and cry Wherever people ain’t free. Wherever men are fightin’ for their rights That’s where I’m a-gonna be Ma. That’s where I’m a-gonna be." End
