: Youngstown is also a brilliant piece of work, in my humble opinion. I have about 5 versions of the song, thanks to the mighty Internet... My kids also love the sopng, probably because I've more or less forced it down their throats... So how be I force it down yours:
You are right, and I thank you for posting those lyrics here and giving me the opportunity to consider the song again. I DO love the songs on "Ghost of Tom Joad," in particular the title cut. It is very hard for me to take all of them in one listening, but individually I love them all. So I'm backpedaling, happily enough.
In "Youngstown," I particularly like the big romantic statement at the end. In a lesser song I would not have bought that ending, but for this character Bruce has written, the boldness of proposing to tell God himself where one wants to go after this life . . . is perfect.

PS: Now, about those five versions . . . :)
