A man walks along the railroad track
He's going some place and there's no turning back
The highway patrol chopper comin up over the ridge
The man sleeps by a campfire under the bridge

The shelter lines stretchin around the corner
Welcome to the new world order
Families sleepin in their cars out in the southwest
No job no home no peace no rest
No rest!

The highway is alive tonight
Nobody is foolin nobody as to where it goes
Sittin down here in the campfire light
Searchin for the ghost of Tom Jones

Out of a sleepin bag
The preacher lights up a b___ and takes a drag
He's waitin for the time when the last shall be first and the first shall be last
In a cardboard box sleepin under pads
With a one-way ticket to the promised land
With a hole in your belly and a cut in your head
Lookin for a piller of solid rock
Bathin in the city's aquaduct
Rock!

The highway is alive tonight
Nobody is foolin nobody as to where it goes
Sittin down here in the campfire light
With the ghost of old Tom Jones

Wherever you've seen a cop beatin a guy
Wherever a hungry dude's watchin a baby cry
Wherever there's a fire in the blood and a hatred in the air
Look for me ma, I'll be there
Wherever somebody's strugglin for a place to stand
For a decent job or a helpin hand
Wherever somebody's strugglin to be free
Look in thier eyes ma, you'll see me (9x)
Rock!

The highway is alive tonight
Nobody is foolin nobody as to where it goes
Sittin down here in the campfire light
With the ghost of Tom Jones
