Track Description
Available in:
"Jack of All Traders" is the number 4 track on the "wrecking Ball" album of Bruce Springsteen, "The Boss"
This is a working man song, like a slow waltz with an electronic beat to it. The singer takes on every job he can acquire: gardener, roof mender, carpenter, car mechanic, farmer. “I take the work that God will provide, I’m the Jack of all trades, we’ll be alright.” This is someone who is taking care of his own. If you work hard enough and have faith, you will be alright: “We stood the drought, we’ll stand the flood. There’s a new world coming, I can see the light.” There seems to be a positive answer to the question Bruce asked at the start of the album: “We’ll start caring for each other again.” Although in the end, there is still a slight edge to this positive message: “If I had me a gun, I’ll find the bastards and shoot them on sight.” Who are the villains? “The banker man grows fat, the working man grows thin. It’s all happened before and it’ll happen again.” Bruce is channeling Woody Guthrie’s ‘I Ain’t Got No Home’ (“The gambling man is rich and the working man is poor”). The song ends in sampled loops and a guitar solo from Tom Morello. Mid-song has horns and a trumpet solo by Curt Ramm.
