Lyrics:
Well, the doctor comes 'round here with his face all bright
And he says, "In a little while you'll be all right"
All he gives is a humbug pill, a dose of dope and a great big bill
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?
He says, "Me and my old school pals had some might high times 'round here
And what happened to you poor black folks, well it just ain't fair"
He took a look around, gave a little pep talk, said, "I'm with you" then he took a little walk
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?
There's bodies floatin' on Canal Street and the levees gone to hell
Martha, get me my sixteen gauge and some dry shells
Them who's got got out of town
And them who ain't got left to drown
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?
I got family scattered from Texas all the way to Baltimore
And I ain't got no home in this world no more
Gonna be a judgment that's a fact, a righteous train rollin' down this track
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?

Hard for me to watch. Lots of emotions still.
My best friend's wife died 2 weeks before this, and my wife was intensive care due to someone running a red light that was not functioning.
We went to this show, and thanks to The Boss, we got some healing that day.
He was a Godsend. People were hugging, hanging on to each other, crying, and letting out all the pent up shit that we all went through. Thank you very much, Bruce.
It occurred to me that Bruce has probably played this hundreds of times by now. But surely none of them meant more to the audience than this one!
Bruce is a force of nature!!! Cann't stop watching and listening and feeling. The greatest music explanation of all time. Thank you so much for giving us dynamite and great emotions, Bruce, Patti and Band. Unbelieveable. He's the limit. God bless you all.🐞🍀
Lived Katrina and her aftermath. Thank you to Bruce for the support during our lowest point.. 💕
MIN 4:45. A STRING GUITAR BREAKS.
YOU CAN ALSO SEE THE REFLECTION OF THE SWEAR DROPS IN THE GUTAR.
GREAT BRUCE!! :D
The best, the one and only! 3 Minutes to make the day a better day!
If ever there was a quintessential blue collar artist for the workers, the proletariat, it has got to be Bruce Springsteen.
Dedicated to President Bystander
He says, "Me and my old school pals had some might high times 'round here
And what happened to you poor black folks, well it just ain't fair"
He took a look around, gave a little pep talk, said, "I'm with you" then he took a little walk
Brimming over with talent, music, and personality. Love you, Bruce!
we that love his music have to admit that he is not only "tougher and the rest" actually he is smarter than the rest. becouse he is adding the jazz in to hes rock & roll. It is genius. I hope he will be wary old and with good helth so he can make more music. He deserve that already and we deserve to listening to it :-) :-)
There are some who are smart like him if you have deeply listened to aĺl of them u find that the comparison is not there there are some who are smarter than him
Love it how a string snaps, he straps it out and keeps playing
Thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting.❤️

Amo Bruce seu trabalho família.Navegando ao som de B. Espringsteen, escrevi um lindo romance esta no manuscrito não sou boa digitadora. Qualquer um q ler, imaginará como deve ser bom ser amada por ele, pq amar ele, é fácil é devaneios de muitas Mulheres.Os Homens? ter seu talento e saber conduzir trabalho, família, cidadania do jeito q ele faz. O Romance no manuscrito na gaveta e ele na minha imaginação, imaginação esta, que excede as expectativas do meu carinho por ele.E tanto q criei para mim na escrita. Edna Alice do Brasil.
Gostaria d ler seu romance 💓 Edna 🎸👏👏👏
Guess my life is done here...norhing else to do.... 🌌

Very different lyrics here then the version by Ry Cooder that I heard first: "I remember a time, when everything was cheap / now prices nearly puts a man to sleep / when we get our grocery bill, we feel like makin' our will / tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?/ Well the doctor, he comes around with his face all bright / and he says, in a little while, it'll be alright / well, all he gives is a humbug pill, a dose of dope and a great big bill / tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?/ Well, most preachers, they preach for gold and not for souls / that's what keeps us poor folk always in a hole / well, we can hardly catch our breath, taxed and schooled and preached to death / tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?"
There's also an ad-libbed lyric that Ry first added when he and David played Japan many years ago, I've got a bootleg record of them in Osaka. "Food is so expensive here", said Ry, "I don't know how y'all eat!". I can't remember the first line, but anyway ......"we pay fifty bucks a pound when we ask for a steak / and when we get our package home, nothin' but water, gristle and bone, / tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?"
Lindley played this song solo on electric 12-string guitar at a concert I attended some years ago, his comment about the song, and Alfred Reed, the blind man who wrote it, was that, "like many blind men, he saw a lot".
good 'un - he states in the intro that he took the first verse and then wrote the following versus for the occasion in response to what he saw in post Katrina New Orleans.
Nothing unheard of in that. Lots of songs Ry plays or look at Delia or Frankie and Albert, Statesboro Blues- lots of floating versus around.
because the Boss reworked it for New Orleans....
so what - That is correct, he explains it clearly in his intro.
😎✌🏻
🇧🇷🇧🇷😍😍🤜🏻🤛🏻🧠.
How to endure so much farce and evil? ... A trail that emerges in the world every hundred years. From the first Eve there at the beginning of everything in the rich African continent ... Alabê from Jerusalem
Boss i love you...remember that you played in Obama s ceremory...happy you made up your mind
Hey genius, when Bruce talked about "President Bystander", he was referring to President Bush, not President Obama...
@@benkeijsciao Ben!🙋😍😘💘🌅
No country please.Spring of Phyladelfia like !
open your mind!
They can't take much more and I'm sick and fucking tired of my people being neglected and used to line rich peoples pockets!!!

It struck me that Bruce was talking about Joe Biden in this song. “When people play political games with other people’s lives”. Agree bruce. Biden played political games and we lost 13 marines and soldiers in Afghanistan 2 years ago. Keep speaking up about the Biden crime family. Appreciate you Bruce
He was talking about W - this was after Katrina, he said President Bystander, after W’s FEMA chief bungled r response and W simply flew over for a photo op
And I really don’t care about but lord
So you are the chooch who votes for Biden. Makes sense. As Bruce says “President bystander”. Biden does nothing as Gaza burns SAD
Barry did that in 8 years flat
Trump did it in 6 months.
And house wives of whatever
How Can A Rich Man Sing Such Songs and Be Taken Seriously?
I've been rich and I've been poor. It's easy, it's your heart. Not your portfolio. Don't judge a man by his net worth but by his character.
Is He Talking about Trump? Sure sounds like it.
This is the year 2005 and he was referring to President Bush...
I know this is some amazing music but damn if I don’t feel like there is political ineptitude going on right now and as I’m typing this gas prices hit another record high and everything rises with it Biden where is he hell the last guy was talked about everyday
how can a rich man,,be bored and can't get beautiful woman,,,
This millionaire is only clown out o work. Low friends in high places. ( not any more)
It's crazy how he complains about the conditions his democrat pals cause. Like every democratic city being a shit hole. why is that Burce?????
Is bruce the capitalist posing as a liberal ...just saying.....😎
Bruce ..you are a great musician. But your liberal politics takes away from your status. Political failure exists equally with both Parties.
It's funny how you have managed to succeed and benefit from a capitalistic, free enterprise business culture like the USA....which certainly wasn't built on liberalism alone. In other words...you do a big Democrat talk with a touch of activism...while you enjoy the "Republican" lifestyle.
Wrong! Bruce has food banks set up at his concerts,has and still gives millions to charity. Nothing republican in any of that.
@@briancrawford7981 Lol. Obviously you see things as "black or white". I know plenty of Republicans (wealthy and not wealthy) who are movers and shakers in the charity world and make a huge difference for all people. You've been WOKE brainwashed.
@@topgeardel yeah sure you do. Like cheeto,the last republican president? You know,the guy that got busted stealing from charity. Sheep!
@@briancrawford7981 ??? BaaBaa back at you.
he is talking about obama and clintons and bushes. did nothing to help the people. Trump makes a difference
He's talking directly to George W Bush, No one else.
Trump ruined this country like an atomic bomb.
