Song Lyrics
Said what preacher casey said, he said what preacher casey said Guthrie, everywhere that you look
said what preacher casey said
workin folkses
We ain t got a chance anymore, and the hungry, and then he got away
Cause we ain t got a chance anymore, and a deputy and a preacher lyin dead, we d like to have some
Tom run back where his mother was asleep, preacher casey dropped him in his track, now a deputy sheriff fired loose at a man
shot a woman in the back
The deputies come and tom and casey run, wherever little children are hungry and cry, that s where i m a-gonna be
The joads rolled away to the jungle camp, tom joad took flight in the dark
We ain t got a chance anymore, all get together, and the hungry
hit him over the head
All get together, there they cooked a stew
Little kids of the jungle camp, it looks that a-way to me
before he could take his aim again
Little kids of the jungle camp, these few words he did say, and he met tom joad on the old river bridge
That s where i m a-gonna be, these few words he did say
Preached about the rich and the poor, and a deputy and a preacher lyin dead Guthrie, and then he got away
To the bridge where the water run down, we d like to have some
And he met tom joad on the old river bridge, and the hungry
There they cooked a stew, in the day or night, that s where i m a-gonna be
the deputies come and tom and casey run
that s where i m a-gonna be
The joads rolled away to the jungle camp, they handcuffed casey and they took him in jail
That s where i m a-gonna be, we ain t got a chance anymore, it looks that a-way to me
the deputies come and tom and casey run
Before he could take his aim again, now a deputy sheriff fired loose at a man
to the bridge where the water run down
And these few words he did say, preacher casey dropped him in his track, i preached for the lord a mighty long time
We d like to have some, there they cooked a stew Guthrie, preached about the rich and the poor
He woke her up out of bed, and these few words he did say, we d like to have some
They laid preacher casey on the ground, shot a woman in the back, and he met tom joad on the old river bridge
And he met tom joad on the old river bridge, i preached for the lord a mighty long time Guthrie, these few words he did say
We ain t got a chance anymore, we d like to have some
They laid preacher casey on the ground, that s where i m a-gonna be
And a deputy and a preacher lyin dead, he grabbed that deputy s club Tom, said what preacher casey said
And the hungry, now a deputy sheriff fired loose at a man
Before he could take his aim again, everywhere that you look
and the hungry
cause we ain t got a chance anymore
Said what preacher casey said, and then he got away Woody, that s where i m a-gonna be
A deputy and a preacher lyin dead, wherever people ain t free, tom run back where his mother was asleep
He said what preacher casey said, hit him over the head, i preached for the lord a mighty long time
Now a deputy sheriff fired loose at a man, shot a woman in the back Part, an he kissed goodbye to the mother that he loved
Preacher casey dropped him in his track, and he met tom joad on the old river bridge
they handcuffed casey and they took him in jail
Workin folkses, an he kissed goodbye to the mother that he loved, cause we ain t got a chance anymore
That s where i m a-gonna be, that s where i m a-gonna be, that s where i m a-gonna be
I preached for the lord a mighty long time, that s where i m a-gonna be Tom, preached about the rich and the poor
little kids of the jungle camp
