Letra
You came through New York Harbor
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
The skyline’s crooked smile
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Warned you as a welcome
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
You never ever could, and you never ever will
You found jobs here and there
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
And it wasn’t easy work
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
But you can’t break a man of dreams
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
You never ever could, and you never ever will
Struggle on, struggle on
Struggle on, struggle on
You rode the rails a while
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
And you got to California
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Where bosses tried to hide their crimes
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
They never ever could, and they never ever will
Joined the Workers of the World
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Sang a song on the picket lines
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Well hey tried to bust the unions
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
But they never ever could, and they never ever will
Struggle on, struggle on
Struggle on, struggle on
Salt Lake City, Utah
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
They charged you with a murder
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Said the evidence proved their case
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
It never ever could, and it never ever will
Judge and jury found you guilty
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Said a death walk waits for you
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
But the state couldn’t kill you
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
It never ever could, and it never ever will
It never ever could, and it never ever will
Tradução da letra
Vieste pelo porto de Nova Iorque.
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
O sorriso torto do horizonte
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Avisei-te como uma recepção
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Nunca conseguiste, e nunca conseguirás.
Encontraste trabalho aqui e ali.
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
E não foi um trabalho fácil.
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Mas não podes quebrar um homem de sonhos
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Nunca conseguiste, e nunca conseguirás.
Luta, luta
Luta, luta
Você andou nos trilhos por um tempo
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
E você chegou à Califórnia
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Onde os chefes tentaram esconder os seus crimes
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Nunca conseguiram, e nunca conseguirão.
Juntou-se aos trabalhadores do mundo
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Cantava uma canção nas linhas dos piquetes
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Bem, ei, tentou prender os sindicatos.
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Mas nunca conseguiram, e nunca conseguirão.
Luta, luta
Luta, luta
Salt Lake City, Utah
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Acusaram-no de homicídio.
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Disse que as provas provaram o caso deles.
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Nunca poderia, e nunca irá.
O juiz e o júri consideraram-no culpado.
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Said a death walk waits for you
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Mas o estado não te podia matar.
Joe Hill, Joe Hill
Nunca poderia, e nunca irá.
Nunca poderia, e nunca irá.
