[00:00.000] 作词 : Springsteen
[00:01.000] 作曲 : B. Springsteen
[00:04.859]My name is Joe Roberts, I work for the state
[00:13.218]I'm a sergeant out of Perrineville, barracks number eight
[00:22.947]I always done an honest job, as honest as I could
[00:32.152]I got a brother named Franky, and Franky ain't no good
[00:41.365]Now ever since we was young kids, it's been the same come down
[00:50.586]I get a call on the short wave, Franky's in trouble downtown
[00:59.485]Well, if it was any other man, I'd put him straight away
[01:09.254]But when it's your brother, sometimes you look the other way
[01:16.938]Yeah, me and Franky, laughin' and drinkin'
[01:21.298]Nothing feels better than blood on blood
[01:26.125]Takin' turns dancin' with Maria
[01:30.325]As the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
[01:36.247]I catch him when he's strayin'
[01:41.349]Like any brother would
[01:45.983]Man turns his back on his family
[01:48.999]Well, he just ain't no good
[01:54.762]Well, Franky went in the army back in 1965
[02:04.242]I got a farm deferment, settled down, took Maria for my wife
[02:12.606]But then wheat prices kept on droppin' till it was like we were gettin' robbed
[02:22.492]Franky came home in '68, and me, I took this job
[02:30.842]Yeah, we were laughin' and drinkin'
[02:35.045]Nothing feels better than blood on blood
[02:40.029]Takin' turns dancin' with Maria
[02:44.641]As the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
[02:50.075]I catch him when he's strayin'
[02:55.184]Teach him how to walk that line
[02:59.952]Man turns his back on his family
[03:02.923]He ain't no friend of mine
[03:17.320]Well, the night was like any other, I got a call 'bout quarter to nine
[03:26.891]There was trouble in a roadhouse, out on the Michigan line
[03:35.651]There was a kid lyin' on the floor lookin' bad, bleedin' hard from his head
[03:44.926]Was a girl cryin' at a table, and it was Frank, they said
[03:54.024]Well, I went out and I jumped in my car, then I hit the lights
[04:03.144]Well, I must've done a hundred and ten through Michigan County that night
[04:12.230]It was out at the crossroads, down 'round willow bank
[04:21.263]Seen a Buick with Ohio plates, behind the wheel was Frank
[04:30.283]Well, I chased him through them county roads
[04:34.866]Till a sign said "Canadian border five miles from here"
[04:40.456]I pulled over the side of the highway, and watched his taillights disappear
[04:49.512]Me and Franky, laughin' and drinkin'
[04:53.414]Nothing feels better than blood on blood
[04:58.466]Takin' turns dancin' with Maria
[05:02.780]As the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
[05:08.088]I catch him when he's strayin'
[05:13.157]Like any brother would
[05:17.909]Man turns his back on his family
[05:21.084]Well, he just ain't no good

My name is Joe Roberts, I work for the state
I'm a sergeant out of Perrineville, barracks number eight
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'
Nothing 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 then wheat prices kept on droppin' till it was like we were gettin' robbed
Franky came home in '68, and me, I took this job
Yeah, we were laughin' and drinkin'
Nothing 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
