    [X]

    letra de Blinded by the Light

    Madman drummers, bummers and Indians in the summer
    With a teenage diplomat
    In the dumps, with the mumps as the adolescent pumps
    His way into his hat

    With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin’ kinda older
    I tripped the merry-go-round
    With this very unpleasing, sneezing and wheezing
    The Calliope crashed to the ground

    Some all-hot, half-shot was headin’ for a hot spot
    Snappin’ his fingers, clappin’ his hands
    And some fleshpot, mascot was tied into a lovers knot
    With a whatnot in her hand

    And now young Scott, with a slingshot
    Finally found a tender spot
    And throws his lover in the sand
    And some bloodshot, forget-me-not
    Whispers “Daddy’s within earshot
    Save the buckshot, turn up the band”

    And she was blinded by the light
    Oh, cut loose like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light

    She got down, but she never got tight
    But, she’ll make it, alright

    Some brimstone, baritone, anticyclone
    Rolling stone preacher from the east
    He says: “Dethrone the Dictaphone
    Hit it in its funny bone, that's where they expect it least”

    And some new-mown chaperone was standin’ in the corner
    All alone watchin’ the young girls dance
    And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin’ with his frozen zone
    To remind him of the feeling of romance


    Yeah, he was blinded by the light
    Oh, cut loose like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    He got down, but he never got tight
    But, he's gonna make it, tonight

    Some silicone sister with her manager’s mister
    Told me I got what it takes
    She said “I'll turn you on sonny to something strong
    If you play that song with the funky break”

    And go-cart Mozart was checkin’ out the weather chart
    To see if it was safe to go outside
    And little early-pearly came by in her curly-wurly
    And asked me if I needed a ride

    Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer
    Playin’ backyard bombardier
    Yes, and Scotland Yard was trying hard
    They sent some dude with a calling card
    It said, “Do what you like, but don't do it here”

    Well, I jumped up, turned around
    Spit in the air, fell on the ground

    Asked him which was the way back home
    He said “Take a right at the light”
    “Keep going straight until night”
    “And then boy, you're on your own”

    And now in Zanzibar, a shootin’ star
    Was ridin’ in a side car, hummin’ a lunar tune
    Yes, and the Avatar said “Blow the bar
    But, first remove the cookie jar
    We’re gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon

    And some kidnapped handicap
    Was complaining that he caught the clap
    From some mousetrap he bought last night

    Well, I unsnapped his skull cap
    And between his ears I saw a gap
    But, figured he'd be all right

    He was just blinded by the light
    Cut loose like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light

    Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun
    Whoa, but, mama that's where the fun is

    Woo, yeah
    (I was blinded)
    Oh, mama, oh, mama, oh mama
    (I was blinded)
    Oh, mama, oh, mama
    (I was blinded)
    I was blinded
    (I was blinded)
    I was blinded
    (I was blinded)
    I was blinded
    (I was blinded)
    I was blinded
    (I was blinded)
    I was blinded
    (I was blinded)
    I was blinded

  2. For YouVer letra

    [X]

    letra de For You

    Princess cards she sends me
    With her regards
    Oh, barroom eyes shine vacancy
    To see her you gotta look hard

    Wounded deep in battle
    I stand stuffed like some soldier undaunted
    To her Cheshire smile
    I'll stand on file
    She's all I ever wanted

    Oh, but you let your blue walls get in the way of these facts
    Honey, get your carpetbaggers off my back
    You wouldn't even give me time to cover my tracks
    You said "Here's your mirror and your ball and jacks"

    But they're not what I came for
    And I'm sure you see that too
    I came for you, for you, I came for you
    But you did not need my urgency
    I came for you, for you, I came for you
    But your life was one long emergency

    And your cloud line urges me
    And my electric surges free

    Well, crawl into my ambulance
    Your pulse is getting weak
    Oh; reveal yourself all now to me girl
    While you've got the strength to speak

    Cause they're waiting for you at Bellevue
    With their oxygen masks
    But I could give it all to you now
    If only you could ask

    Well and don't call for your surgeon
    Even he says it's too late
    It's not your lungs this time
    It's your heart that holds your fate

    Don't give me money, honey
    I don't want it back
    You and your pony face and your Union Jack
    Well take your local joker and teach him how to act

    I swear I was never that way
    Even when I really cracked
    Didn't you think I knew that?

    You were born with the power of a locomotive
    Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound
    And your Chelsea suicide with no apparent motive
    You could laugh and cry in a single sound
    Oh, alright, mmm

    And your strength is devastating
    In the face of all these odds
    Remember how I kept you waiting
    When it was my turn to be the god?

    You were not quite half so proud
    When I found you broken on the beach
    Remember how I poured salt on your tongue
    And hung just out of reach

    And the band they played the homecoming theme
    As I caressed your cheek
    Yeah, that ragged, jagged melody
    She still clings to me like a leach

    But that medal you wore on your chest
    Always got in the way
    Like a little girl with a trophy
    So soft to buy her way

    We were both hitchhikers
    But you had your ear tuned to the roar
    Of some metal-tempered engine
    On an alien, distant shore

    So you left to find a better reason
    Than the one we were living for
    And it's not that nursery mouth I came back for
    It's not the way you're stretched out on the floor

    Cause I've broken all your windows
    And I've rammed through all your doors
    And who am I to ask you to lick my sores?

    And you should know that's true
    I came for you, for you, I came for you,
    But you did not need my urgency
    I came for you, for you, I came for you
    But life was one long emergency
    And your cloud line urges me
    And my electric surges free, wooo

    letra de Spirit in the Night

    Crazy Janey and her mission man were back in the alley tradin' hands
    'long came Wild Billy with his friend G-man all duded up for Saturday night
    Well Billy slammed on his coaster brakes and said anybody wanna go on up to Greasy Lake
    It's about a mile down on the dark side of route eighty-eight
    I got a bottle of rose so let's try it
    We'll pick up Hazy Davy and Killer Joe and I'll take you all out to where the gypsy angels go
    They're built like light
    and they dance like spirits in the night (all night) in the night (all night)
    Oh, you don't know what they can do to you
    Spirits in the night (all night) in the night (all night)
    Stand right up now and let them shoot through you

    Well now Wild Billy was a crazy cat and he shook some dust out of his coonskin cap
    He said, "Trust some of this it'll show you where you're at." or at least it'll help you really feel it
    By the time we made it up to Greasy Lake I had my head out the window and Janey's fingers were in the cake
    I think I really dug her 'cause I was too loose to fake
    I said, "I'm hurt." She said, "Honey let me heal it."
    And we danced all night to a soul fairy band
    and she kissed me just right like only a lonely angel can
    She felt so nice, just as soft as a spirit in the night (all night)
    In the night (all night). Janey don't know what she do to you
    Spirit in the night (all night) in the night (all night)
    Stand right up and let her shoot through me

    Now the night was bright and the stars threw light on Billy and Davy
    dancin' in the moonlight
    They were down near the water in a stone mud fight
    Killer Joe gone passed out on the lawn
    Well now Hazy Davy got really hurt, he ran into the lake in just his socks and a shirt
    Me and Crazy Janey was makin' love in the dirt singin' our birthday songs
    Janey said it was time to go so we closed our eyes and said goodbye to gypsy angel row, felt so right
    Together we moved like spirits in the night, all night
    Baby don't know what it do to you
    Spirits in the night (all the night) in the night (all night)

    letra de 4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)

    Sandy the fireworks are hailin' over Little Eden tonight
    Forcin' a light into all those stoned-out faces left stranded on this Fourth of July
    Down in town the circuit's full with switchblade lovers so fast so shiny so sharp
    As the wizards play down on Pinball Way on the boardwalk way past dark
    And the boys from the casino dance with their shirts open like Latin lovers along the shore
    Chasin' all them silly New York girls

    Sandy the aurora is risin' behind us
    The pier lights our carnival life forever
    Love me tonight for I may never see you again
    Hey Sandy girl

    Now the greasers they tramp the streets or get busted for trying to sleep on the beach all night
    Them boys in their spiked high heels ah Sandy their skins are so white
    And me I just got tired of hangin' in them dusty arcades bangin' them pleasure machines
    Chasin' the factory girls underneath the boardwalk where they promise to unsnap their jeans
    And you know that tilt-a-whirl down on the south beach drag
    I got on it last night and my shirt got caught
    And that Joey kept me spinnin' I didn't think I'd ever get off

    Oh Sandy the aurora is risin' behind us
    The pier lights our carnival life on the water
    Runnin' down the beach at night with my boss's daughter
    Well he ain't my boss no more Sandy

    Sandy the angels have lost their desire for us
    I spoke to 'em just last night and they said they won't set themselves on fire for us anymore
    Every summer when the weather gets hot they ride that road down from heaven on their Harleys they come and they go
    And you can see 'em dressed like stars in all the cheap little seashore bars parked making love with their babies out on the Kokomo
    Well the cops finally busted Madame Marie for tellin' fortunes better than they do
    This boardwalk life for me is through
    You know you ought to quit this scene too

    Sandy the aurora's rising behind us
    The pier lights our carnival life forever
    Oh love me tonight and I promise I'll love you forever

    letra de Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)

    Spread out now Rosie doctor come cut loose her mama's reins
    You know playin' blind man's bluff is a little baby's game
    You pick up Little Dynamite I'm gonna pick up Little Gun
    And together we're gonna go out tonight and make that highway run
    You don't have to call me lieutenant Rosie and I don't want to be your son
    The only lover I'm ever gonna need's your soft sweet little girl's tongue and Rosie you're the one
    Dynamite's in the belfry playin' with the bats
    Little Gun's downtown in front of Woolworth's tryin' out his attitude on all the cats
    Papa's on the corner waitin' for the bus
    Mama she's home in the window waitin' up for us
    She'll be there in that chair when they wrestle her upstairs 'cause you know we ain't gonna come
    I ain't here on business
    I'm only here for fun

    Rosalita jump a little lighter
    Senorita come sit by my fire
    I just want to be your lover ain't no liar
    Rosalita you're my stone desire

    Jack the Rabbit and Weak Knees Willie you know they're gonna be there
    Ah Sloppy Sue and Big Bones Billy they'll be comin' up for air
    We're gonna play some pool skip some school act real cool
    Stay out all night it's gonna feel all right
    Rosie come out tonight Rosie come out tonight
    Windows are for cheaters chimneys for the poor
    Closets are for hangers winners use the door

    Rosalita jump a little lighter
    Senorita come sit by my fire
    I just want to be your lover ain't no liar
    Rosalita you're my stone desire

    Now I know your mama she don't like me 'cause I play in a rock and roll band
    And I know your daddy he don't dig me but he never did understand
    Papa lowered the boom he locked you in your room
    I'm comin' to lend a hand
    I'm comin' to liberate you confiscate you I want to be your man
    Someday we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny
    But now you're sad your mama's mad
    And your papa says he knows that I don't have any money
    Tell him this is his last chance to get his daughter in a fine romance
    Because a record company Rosie just gave me big bucks

    My tires were slashed and I almost crashed but the Lord had mercy
    My machine she's a dud out stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey
    Hold on tight stay up all night 'cause Rosie I'm comin' on strong
    By the time we meet the morning light I will hold you in my arms
    I know a pretty little place in Southern California down San Diego way
    There's a little cafe where they play guitars all night and day
    You can hear them in the back room strummin'
    So hold tight baby 'cause don't you know daddy's comin'

    Rosalita jump a little lighter
    Senorita come sit by my fire
    I just want to be your lover ain't no liar
    Rosalita you're my stone desire

  6. Thunder RoadVer letra

    letra de Thunder Road

    The screen door slams
    Mary's dress waves
    Like a vision she dances across the porch
    As the radio plays
    Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
    Hey that's me and I want you only
    Don't turn me home again
    I just can't face myself alone again
    Don't run back inside
    darling you know just what I'm here for
    So you're scared and you're thinking
    That maybe we ain't that young anymore
    Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
    You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright
    Oh and that's alright with me

    You can hide `neath your covers
    And study your pain
    Make crosses from your lovers
    Throw roses in the rain
    Waste your summer praying in vain
    For a savior to rise from these streets
    Well now I'm no hero
    That's understood
    All the redemption I can offer, girl
    Is beneath this dirty hood
    With a chance to make it good somehow
    Hey what else can we do now
    Except roll down the window
    And let the wind blow back your hair
    Well the night's busting open
    These two lanes will take us anywhere
    We got one last chance to make it real
    To trade in these wings on some wheels
    Climb in back
    Heaven's waiting on down the tracks
    Oh oh come take my hand
    Riding out tonight to case the promised land
    Oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road
    oh Thunder Road
    Lying out there like a killer in the sun
    Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run
    Oh Thunder Road, sit tight take hold
    Thunder Road

    Well I got this guitar
    And I learned how to make it talk
    And my car's out back
    If you're ready to take that long walk
    >From your front porch to my front seat
    The door's open but the ride it ain't free
    And I know you're lonely
    For words that I ain't spoken
    But tonight we'll be free
    All the promises'll be broken
    There were ghosts in the eyes
    Of all the boys you sent away
    They haunt this dusty beach road
    In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets

    They scream your name at night in the street
    Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
    And in the lonely cool before dawn
    You hear their engines roaring on
    But when you get to the porch they're gone
    On the wind, so Mary climb in
    It's a town full of losers
    And I'm pulling out of here to win.

  7. Born to RunVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Born to Run

    In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American Dream
    At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
    Sprung from cages on Highway Nine
    Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and steppin’ out over the line

    Oh, baby, this town rips the bones from your back
    It’s a death trap, it's a suicide rap
    We gotta get out while we’re young
    Cause tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
    Yes, girl, we are

    Wendy, let me in I wanna be your friend
    I wanna guard your dreams and visions
    Just wrap your legs ‘round these velvet rims
    And strap your hands ‘cross my engines

    Together we could break this trap
    We’ll run till we drop, baby we’ll never go back
    Oh, will you walk with me out on the wire?
    Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider
    But I gotta know how it feels
    I wanna know if love is wild, babe, I wanna know if love is real
    Oh, can ya show me
    Huh, sax

    (Sax Solo)

    Beyond the palace, hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
    Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
    And the boys try to look so hard
    The amusement park rises bold and stark
    Kids are huddled on the beach in the mist
    I wanna die with ya, Wendy, on the street tonight
    In an everlastin’ kiss, ha

    (Guitar Solo)

    One, two, three, four
    The highway’s jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
    Well, everybody’s out on the run tonight, but there's no place left to hide
    Together Wendy we can live with the sadness
    I’ll love you with all the madness in my soul
    Oh, someday girl, I don't know when we’re gonna get to that place
    Where we really wanna go and we’ll walk in the sun
    But till then, tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
    Come on, Honey, tramps like us
    Baby, we were born to run
    Come on Wendy, tramps like us
    Baby, we were born to run
    Whoa, a-whoa, mmm, mmm, ahh, ahh, aah
    Whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oo, ooo
    Mmm, mmm, whoa, ooo, ooo, whoa, oh, oh, oh, ooo, ooo

  8. JunglelandVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Jungleland

    The Rangers had a homecomin’ in Harlem late last night
    And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine, over the Jersey state line
    Barefoot Girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge
    Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain
    The Rat pulls into town rolls up his pants
    Together they take a stab at romance
    And disappear down Flamingo Lane

    Well, the maximum lawman run down Flamingo
    Chasing the Rat and the Barefoot Girl

    And the kids ‘round here, look just like shadows
    Always quiet, holding hands
    From the churches to the jails
    Tonight all is silence in the world, as we take our stand
    Down in Jungleland

    The midnight gangs assembled
    And picked a rendezvous for the night
    They'll meet 'neath that giant Exxon sign
    That brings this fair city light

    Man, there's an opera out on the turnpike
    There's a ballet being fought out in the alley
    Until the local cop, cherry top, rips this holy night

    The street’s alive as debts are paid
    Contacts made, they vanished unseen
    Kids flash guitars just like switch-blades
    Hustling for the record machine

    The hungry and the hunted
    Explode into rock ‘n roll bands
    That face off against each other out in the street
    Down in Jungleland

    (Guitar solo)

    In the parking lot the visionaries dress in the latest rage
    Inside the backstreet girls
    Are dancing to the records that the D. J. plays

    Lonely-hearted lovers struggle in dark corners
    Desperate as the night moves on
    Just a look and a whisper, and they're gone

    (Soulful Sax Solo)

    Beneath the city two hearts beat
    Soul engines runnin’ through a night so tender
    In a bedroom locked
    In whispers of soft, refusal, and then surrender

    In the tunnels uptown
    The Rat’s own dream guns him down
    As shots echo down them hallways in the night
    No one watches, when the ambulance pulls away
    Or, as the girl shuts out the bedroom light

    Outside, the street’s on fire in a real death waltz
    Between what’s flesh and what's fantasy
    And then poets down here, don't write nothin’ at all
    They just stand back and let it all be

    And in the quick of the night
    They reach for their moment
    And try to make an honest stand
    But they wind up wounded, not even dead
    Tonight in Jungleland

  9. BadlandsVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Badlands

    There’re lights out tonight, trouble in the heartland
    Got a head-on collision, smashin’ in my guts, man
    I'm caught in a crossfire, that I don't understand

    But there's one thing I know for sure, girl
    I don't give a damn for the same old played out scenes
    Honey, I don't give a damn, for just the in-betweens

    Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul, I want control right now
    You better listen to me, baby
    Talk about a dream; try to make it real
    You wake up in the night, with a fear so real
    You spend your life waitin’ for a moment, that just don't come
    Well, don't waste your time waiting

    Badlands, you’ve gotta live it every day
    Let the broken hearts stand
    As the price you’ve gotta pay
    Keep pushin’ until it's understood
    And these badlands start treating us good

    Workin’ in the field
    Till you get your back burned
    Workin’ 'neath the wheels
    Till you get your facts learned

    Baby, I got my facts, learned real good right now
    You better get it straight, darling
    Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king
    And a king ain’t satisfied, till he rules everything
    I wanna go out tonight, I wanna find out what I got

    Now, I believe in the love that you gave me
    I believe in the faith, that could save me
    I believe in the hope and I pray that someday it
    Will raise me above these

    Badlands, you’ve gotta live it every day
    Let the broken hearts stand
    As the price you’ve gotta pay
    Keep pushin’ till it's understood
    And these badlands start treating us good
    Whoa, whoa, whoa

    (Guitar & Sax Solo)

    Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmm
    Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmm
    Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmm
    Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmm

    For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside
    That it ain’t no sin to be glad you're alive
    I wanna find one face, that ain’t looking through me
    I wanna find one place, I wanna spit in the face of these

    Badlands, you’ve gotta live it every day
    Let the broken hearts stand
    As the price you’ve gotta pay
    Keep pushin’ until it's understood
    And these badlands start treating us good

    A-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
    Badlands, a-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
    Badlands, a-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
    Badlands, a-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
    Badlands, a-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
    Badlands, a-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

    letra de Darkness on the Edge of Town

    Well, they're still racing out at the trestles
    But, that blood it never burned in her veins
    Now, I hear she's got a house up in Fairview
    In a style she's trying to maintain

    Well, if she wants to see me
    You can tell her that I'm easily found
    Tell her, there's a spot out 'neath Abram's Bridge
    And tell her there's a darkness on the edge of town
    There’s a darkness on the edge of town

    Well, everybody's got a secret, Sonny
    Somethin’ that they just can't face
    Some folks spend their whole lives trying to keep it
    They carry it with them every step that they take

    Till someday, they just cut it loose
    Cut it loose or let it drag 'em down
    Where no one asks any questions
    Or looks too long at your face
    In the darkness on the edge of town
    In the darkness on the edge of town

    (Guitar Solo)

    Now some folks are born into a good life
    And other folks get it anyway, anyhow
    And I lost my money and I lost my wife
    Them things don't seem to matter much to me now

    Tonight I'll be on that hill 'cause I can't stop
    I'll be on that hill with everything I got
    Well, lives on the line where dreams are found and lost
    I'll be there on time and I'll pay the cost

    For wantin’ things that can only be found
    In the darkness on the edge of town
    In the darkness on the edge of town

    letra de The Promised Land

    On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert
    I pick up my money and head back into town
    Driving cross the Waynesboro county line
    I got the radio on and I'm just killing time
    Working all day in my daddy's garage
    Driving all night chasing some mirage
    Pretty soon little girl I'm gonna take charge

    The dogs on Main Street holw 'cause they understand
    If I could take one moment into my hands
    Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man
    And I believe in a promised land

    I've done my best to live the right way
    I get up every morning and go to work each day
    But your eyes go blind and your blood runs cold
    Sometimes I feel so weak I just want to explode
    Explode and tear this town apart
    Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart
    Find somebody itching for something to start

    The dogs on Main Street holw 'cause they understand
    If I could take one moment into my hands
    Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man
    And I believe in a promised land

    There's a dark cloud rising from the desert floor
    I packed my bags and I'm heading straight into the storm
    Gonna be a twister to blow everything down
    That ain't got the faith to stand its ground
    Blow away the dreams that tear you apart
    Blow away the dreams that break your heart
    Blow away the lies that leave you nothing but lost and broken hearted

    The dogs on Main Street holw 'cause they understand
    If I could take one moment into my hands
    Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man
    And I believe in a promised land

    letra de The River

    I come from down in the valley
    Where mister, when you're young
    They bring you up to do like your daddy done
    Me and Mary we met in high school
    When she was just seventeen
    We'd drive out of this valley down to where the fields weregreen
    We'd go down to the river
    And into the river we'd dive
    Oh down to the river we'd ride

    Then I got Mary pregnant
    And, man, that was all she wrote
    And for my 19th birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat
    We went down to the courthouse
    And the judge put it all to rest
    No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle
    No flowers, no wedding dress

    That night we went down to the river
    And into the river we'd dive
    Oh down to the river we did ride

    I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company
    But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy
    Now all them things that seemed so important
    Well mister they vanished right into the air
    Now I just act like I don't remember
    Mary acts like she don't care

    But I remember us riding in my brother's car
    Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir
    At night on them banks I'd lie awake
    And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
    Now those memories come back to haunt me
    They haunt me like a curse
    Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
    Or is it something worse
    That sends me
    Down to the river

    Though I know the river is dry
    That sends me down to the river tonight
    Down to the river
    My baby and I
    Oh down to the river we ride

    I took a wrong turn and I just kept goin’

    Everybody’s got a hungry heart
    Everybody’s got a hungry heart
    Lay down your money and ya play your part
    Everybody’s got a hungry heart

    I met her in a Kingstown bar
    We fell in love, I knew it had to end
    We took what we had and we ripped it apart
    Now here I am, down in Kingstown, again

    Everybody’s got a hungry heart
    Everybody’s got a hungry heart
    Lay down your money and ya play your part
    Everybody’s got a hungry heart

    (Instrumental Break)

    Everybody needs a place to rest
    Everybody wants to have a home
    Don't make no difference what nobody says
    Ain’t nobody like to be alone

    Oh yeah, everybody’s got a hungry heart
    Everybody’s got a hungry heart
    Lay down your money and ya play your part
    Everybody’s got a hungry heart

    letra de Nebraska

    I saw her standin' on her front lawn
    Just a-twirlin' her baton
    Me and her went for a ride, sir
    And ten innocent people died

    From the town of Lincoln, Nebraska
    With a sawed-off .410 on my lap
    Through to the badlands of Wyoming
    I killed everything in my path

    I can't say that I'm sorry
    For the things that we done
    At least for a little while, sir
    Me and her we had us some fun

    The jury brought in a guilty verdict
    And the judge, he sentenced me to death
    Midnight in prision storeroom
    With leather straps across my chest

    Sheriff, when the man pulls
    That switch, sir, and snaps my poor neck back
    You make sure my pretty baby
    Is sittin' right there on my lap

    They declared me unfit to live
    Said into that great void my soul'd be hurled
    They wanted to know why I did what I did
    Well sir, I guess there's just a meanness in this world

    Well, they blew up the chicken man in philly last night
    Now, they blew up his house, too
    Down on the boardwalk they're gettin ready for a fight
    Gonna see what them racket boys can do

    Now, there's trouble bustin in from outta state
    And the D. A. Can't get no relief
    Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade
    And the gamblin commissions hangin on by the skin of his teeth

    Well now, evrything dies, baby, that's a fact
    But maybe evrything that dies someday comes back
    Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty
    And meet me tonight in atlantic city

    Well, I got a job and tried to put my money away
    But I got debts that no honest man can pay
    So I drew what I had from the central trust
    And I bought us two tickets on that coast city bus

    Now, baby, evrything dies, honey, that's a fact...

    Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold
    But with you forever I'll stay
    Were goin out where the sands turnin to gold
    Put on your stockins baby, 'cause the nights getting cold
    And maybe evrything dies, baby, that's a fact
    But maybe evrything that dies someday comes back

    Now, I been lookin for a job, but it's hard to find
    Down here it's just winners and losers and don't
    Get caught on the wrong side of that line
    Well, I'm tired of comin out on the losin end
    So, honey, last night I met this guy and I'm gonna
    Do a little favor for him

    Well, I guess everything dies, baby, that's a fact...

    Born down in a dead man's town
    The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
    You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
    Till you spend half your life just covering up

    Born in the U.S.A
    I was born in the U.S.A
    I was born in the U.S.A
    Born in the U.S.A

    Got in a little hometown jam
    So they put a rifle in my hand
    Sent me off to a foreign land
    To go and kill the yellow man

    Born in the U.S.A
    I was born in the U.S.A. ah!
    Born in the U.S.A
    I was born in the U.S.A

    Come back home to the refinery
    Hiring man says: son if it was up to me
    Went down to see my v.a. man
    He said: son, don't you understand now

    Had a brother at Khe Sahn fighting off the Viet Cong
    They're still there he's all gone
    He had a woman he loved in Saigon
    I got a picture of him in her arms now

    Down in the shadow of penitentiary
    Out by the gas fires of the refinery
    I'm ten years burning down the road
    Nowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go

    Born in the U.S.A
    I was born in the U.S.A. now
    Born in the U.S.A
    I'm long gone daddy in the U.S.A. now

    Born in the U.S.A

    I had a friend was a big baseball player
    Back in high school
    He could throw that speedball by you
    Make you look like a fool boy
    Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
    I was walking in, he was walking out
    We went back inside sat down had a few drinks
    But all he kept talking about was

    Chorus:
    Glory days well they'll pass you by
    Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
    Glory days, glory days

    Well there's a girl that lives up the block
    Back in school she could turn all the boy's heads
    Sometimes on a friday i'll stop by
    And have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed
    Her and her husband bobby well they split up
    I guess it's two years gone by now
    We just sit around talking about the old times,
    She says when she feels like crying
    She starts laughing thinking about

    Chorus

    My old man worked 20 years on the line
    And they let him go
    Now everywhere he goes out looking for work
    They just tell him that he's too old
    I was 9 nine years old and he was working at the
    Metuchen ford plant assembly line
    Now he just sits on a stool down at the legion hall
    But I can tell what's on his mind

    Glory days yeah goin back
    Glory days aw he ain't never had
    Glory days, glory days

    Now I think I'm going down to the well tonight
    And I'm going to drink till I get my fill
    And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it
    But I probably will
    Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
    A little of the glory of, well time slips away
    And leaves you with nothing mister but
    Boring stories of glory days

    I get up in the evening, and I ain't got nothing to say
    I come home in the morning, I go to bed feeling the same way
    I ain't nothing but tired, man I'm just tired and bored with myself
    Hey there baby, I could use just a little help
    [Chorus:]
    You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
    This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

    Message just keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving round my place
    I check my look in the mirror wanna change my clothes my hair my face
    Man I ain't getting nowhere I'm just livin in a dump like this
    There's something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is

    [Chorus:]

    You sit around getting older there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
    I'll shake this world off my shoulders come on baby the laughs on me
    Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up alright
    They say you got to stay hungry hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
    I'm dying for some action I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write
    This book
    I need a love reaction come on baby give me just one look

    [Chorus:]
    You can't start a fire, sittin' 'round cryin' over a broken heart
    This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

    You can't start a fire, worryin' about your little world falling apart
    This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark

    Fat man sitting on a little stool
    Takes the money from my hand while his eyes take a walk all over you
    Hands me two tickets smiles and whispers good luck
    Cuddle up angel cuddle up my little dove
    We'll ride down baby into this tunnel of love

    I can feel the soft silk of your blouse
    And them soft thrills in our little fun house
    Then the lights go out and it's just the three of us
    You me and all that stuff we're so scared of
    Gotta ride down baby into this tunnel of love

    There's a crazy mirror showing us both in 5-D
    I'm laughing at you you're laughing at me
    There's a room of shadows that gets so dark brother
    It's easy for two people to lose each other in this tunnel of love

    It ought to be easy ought to be simple enough
    Man meets a woman and they fall in love
    But the house is haunted and the ride gets rough
    And you've got to learn to live with what you can't rise above if you want to ride on down in through this tunnel of love

    letra de Brilliant Disguise

    I hold you in my arms as the band plays
    What are those words whispered baby just as you turn away
    I saw you last night out on the edge of town
    I wanna read your mind and know just what I've got in this new thing I've found
    So tell me what I see when I look in your eyes
    Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise

    I heard somebody call your name from underneath our willow
    I saw something tucked in shame underneath your pillow
    Well I've tried so hard baby but I just can't see
    What a woman like you is doing with me
    So tell me what I see when I look in your eyes
    Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise

    Now look at me baby struggling to do everything right
    And then it all falls apart when out go the lights
    I'm just a lonely pilgrim I walk this world in wealth
    I want to know if it's you I don't trust cause I damn sure don't trust
    Myself

    Now you play the loving woman I'll play the faithful man
    But just don't look too close into the palm of my hand
    We stood at the alter the gypsy swore our future was right
    But come the wee wee hours maybe baby the gypsy lied
    So when you look at me you better look hard and look twice
    Is that me baby or just a brilliant disguise

    Tonight our bed is cold
    I'm lost in the darkness of our love
    God have mercy on the man
    Who doubts what he's sure of

    Well the world just strips away
    Girl, aint no kindness in the face of strangers
    Aint gonna find no miracles here
    Well you can wait on your blesses my darling
    I got a deal for you right here
    I aint looking for praise or pity
    I aint coming round searching for a crutch
    I just want someone to talk to
    And a little of that human touch
    Just a little of that human touch

    Aint no mercy on the streets of this town
    Aint no bread from heavenly skies
    Aint nobody drawing wine from this blood
    Its just you and me tonight
    Tell me, in a world without pity
    Do you think what I'm askins too much
    I just want something to hold on to
    And a little of that human touch
    Just a little of that human touch

    Oh girl that feeling of safety that you prize
    Well it comes at a hard hard price
    You can't shut off the risk and the pain
    Without losing the love that remains
    Were all riders on this train

    So youve been broken and youve been hurt
    Show me somebody who aint
    Yeah, I know I aint nobodys bargain
    But, hell, a little touch up and a little paint...
    You might need something to hold on to
    When all the answers, they don't amount to much
    Somebody that you could just to talk to
    And a little of that human touch
    Baby, in a world without pity
    Do you think what I'm askins too much
    I just want to feel you in my arms
    Share a little of that human touch
    Feel a little of that human touch
    Give me a little of that human touch

    letra de Living Proof

    Well now on a summer night in a dusky room
    Come a little piece of the Lord's undying light
    Crying like he swallowed the fiery moon
    In his mother's arms it was all the beauty I could take
    Like the missing words to some prayer that I could never make
    In a world so hard and dirty so fouled and confused
    Searching for a little bit of God's mercy
    I found living proof
    I put my heart and soul I put 'em high upon a shelf
    Right next to the faith the faith that I'd lost in myself
    I went down into the desert city
    Just tryin' so hard to shed my skin
    I crawled deep into some kind of darkness
    Lookin' to burn out every trace of who I'd been
    You do some sad sad things baby
    When it's you you're tryin' to lose
    You do some sad and hurtful things
    I've seen living proof

    You shot through my anger and rage
    To show me my prison was just an open cage
    There were no keys no guards
    Just one frightened man and some old shadows for bars

    Well now all that's sure on the boulevard
    Is that life is just a house of cards
    As fragile as each and every breath
    Of this boy sleepin' in our bed
    Tonight let's lie beneath the eaves
    Just a close band of happy thieves
    And when that train comes we'll get on board
    And steal what we can from the treasures treasures of the Lord
    It's been a long long drought baby
    Tonight the rain's pourin' down on our roof
    Looking for a little bit of God's mercy
    I found living proof

    I'm going down to Lucky Town
    Going down to Lucky Town
    I wanna lose these blues I've found
    Down in Lucky Town
    Down in Lucky Town

    Had a coat of fine leather and snakeskin boots
    But that coat always had a thread hangin' to loose
    Well I pulled it one night and to my surprise
    It led me right past your house and on over the rise

    I'm going down to Lucky Town
    Down to Lucky Town
    I'm gonna lose these blues I've found
    Down in Lucky Town
    Down in Lucky Town

    I had some victory that was just failure in deceit
    Now the joke's comin' up through the soles of my feet
    I been a long time walking on fortune's cane
    Tonight I'm sleepin' lightly and feelin' no pain

    Well here's to your good looks baby now here's to my health
    Here's to the loaded places that we take ourselves
    When it comes to luck you make your own
    Tonight I got to dirt on my hands but I'm building me a new home

    Down in Lucky Town
    Down in Lucky Town
    I'm gonna lose these blues I've found

    I saw my reflection in a window I didn't know my own face
    Oh, brother, are you gonna leave me wastin' away
    On, the streets of Philadelphia

    I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone
    I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
    At night I could hear the blood in my veins
    Just as black and whispering as the rain
    On the streets of Philadelphia

    Ain't no angel gonna greet me
    It's just you and I my friend
    My clothes don´t fit me no more
    I walked a thousand miles
    Just to slip the skin

    The night has fallen, I´m lyin´awake
    I can feel myself fading away
    So receive me brother with your faithless kiss
    Or will we leave each other alone like this
    On the streets of Philadelphia

    Men walkin' 'long the railroad tracks
    Goin' someplace there's no goin' back
    Highway patrol choppers comin' up over the ridge

    Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
    Shelter line stretchin' 'round the corner
    Welcome to the new world order
    Families sleepin' in their cars in the Southwest
    No home no job no peace no rest

    The highway is alive tonight
    But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes
    I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
    Searchin' for the ghost of Tom Joad

    He pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag
    Preacher lights up a butt and takes a drag
    Waitin' for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last
    In a cardboard box 'neath the underpass
    Got a one-way ticket to the promised land
    You got a hole in your belly and gun in your hand
    Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock
    Bathin' in the city aqueduct

    The highway is alive tonight
    Where it's headed everybody knows
    I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
    Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joad

    Now Tom said "Mom, wherever there's a cop beatin' a guy
    Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries
    Where there's a fight 'gainst the blood and hatred in the air
    Look for me Mom I'll be there
    Wherever there's somebody fightin' for a place to stand
    Or decent job or a helpin' hand
    Wherever somebody's strugglin' to be free
    Look in their eyes Mom you'll see me."

    Well the highway is alive tonight
    But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes
    I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
    With the ghost of old Tom Joad

    Can't see nothin' coming up behind

    I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me
    Lost track of how far I've gone
    How far I've gone, how high I've climbed
    On my back's a sixty pound stone
    On my shoulder a half mile line

    Come on up for the rising
    Com on up, lay your hands in mine
    Come on up for the rising
    Come on up for the rising tonight

    Left the house this morning
    Bells ringing filled the air
    Wearin' the cross of my calling
    On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here

    Come on up for the rising
    Come on up, lay your hands in mine
    Come on up for the rising
    Come on up for the rising tonight

    Spirits above and behind me
    Faces gone, black eyes burnin' bright
    May their precious blood forever bind me
    Lord as I stand before your fiery light

    Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li

    I see you Mary in the garden
    In the garden of a thousand sighs
    There's holy pictures of our children
    Dancin' in a sky filled with light
    May I feel your arms around me
    May I feel your blood mix with mine
    A dream of life comes to me
    Like a catfish dancin' on the end of the line

    Sky of blackness and sorrow ( a dream of life)
    Sky of love, sky of tears (a dream of life)
    Sky of glory and sadness ( a dream of life)
    Sky of mercy, sky of fear ( a dream of life)
    Sky of memory and shadow ( a dream of life)
    Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight
    Sky of longing and emptiness (a dream of life)
    Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life ( a dream of life)

    Come on up for the rising
    Come on up, lay your hands in mine

    letra de My City of Ruins

    There is a blood red circle
    On the cold dark ground
    And the rain is falling down
    The church door's thrown open
    I can hear the organ's song
    But the congregation's gone
    My city of ruins
    My city of ruins

    Now the sweet bells of mercy
    Drift through the evening trees
    Young men on the corner
    Like scattered leaves,
    The boarded up windows,
    The empty streets
    While my brother's down on his knees
    My city of ruins
    My city of ruins

    Come on, rise up! Come on, rise up!
    Come on, rise up! Come on, rise up!
    Come on, rise up! Come on, rise up!

    Now's there's tears on the pillow
    Darlin' where we slept
    And you took my heart when you left
    Without your sweet kiss
    My soul is lost, my friend
    Tell me how do I begin again?
    My city's in ruins
    My city's in ruins

    Now with these hands,
    With these hands,
    With these hands,
    I pray Lord
    With these hands,
    With these hands,
    I pray for the strength, Lord
    With these hands,
    With these hands,
    I pray for the faith, Lord
    We pray for your love, Lord
    We pray for the lost, Lord
    We pray for this world, Lord
    We pray for the strength, Lord
    We pray for the strength, Lord

    Come on
    Come on
    Come on, rise up
    Come on, rise up
    Come on, rise up
    Come on, rise up
    Come on, rise up
    Come on, rise up
    Come on, rise up
    Come on, rise up
    Come on, rise up

    letra de Lonesome Day

    Once I thought I knew
    Everything I needed to know about you
    Your sweet whisper, Your tender touch
    But I didn't really know that much
    Joke's on me, It's gonna be okay
    If I can just get through this lonesome day

    Hell's brewin' dark sun's on the rise
    This storm'll blow through by and by
    House is on fire, Viper's in the grass
    A little revenge and this too shall pass
    This too shall pass, I'm gonna pray
    Right now all I got's this lonesome day

    It's allright? It's allright? It's allright

    Better ask questions before you shoot
    Deceit and betrayals bitter fruit
    It's hard to swallow, come time to pay
    That taste on your tongue don't easily slip away

    Let kingdom come I'm gonna find my way
    Through this lonesome day

    letra de Land of Hope and Dreams

    Oh this train...
    I'm ridin' this train...
    Don't you wanna ride?

    Grab your ticket and your suitcase
    Thunder's rollin' down this track
    Well, you don't know where you're goin' now
    But you know you won't be back
    Well darlin' if you're weary
    Lay your head upon my chest
    We'll take what we can carry
    And we'll leave the rest

    Big wheels rolls through fields where sunlight streams
    Meet me in a land of hope and dreams

    I will provide for you
    And I'll stand by your side
    You'll need a good companion now
    For this part of the ride
    Leave behind your sorrows
    Let this day be the last
    Tomorrow there'll be sunshine
    And all this darkness past

    Big wheels roll through fields where sunlight streams
    Meet me in a land of hope and dreams

    Well, this train
    Carries saints and sinners
    This train
    Carries losers and winners
    This train
    Carries whores and gamblers
    This train
    Carries lost souls
    I said, this train
    Dreams will not be thwarted
    This train
    Faith will be rewarded
    This train
    Hear the steel wheels singin'
    This train
    Bells of freedom ringin'

    This train
    Carries saints and sinners
    This train
    Carries losers and winners
    This train
    Carries whores and gamblers
    This train
    Carries lost souls
    I said, this train
    Carries broken-hearted
    This train
    Thieves and sweet souls departed
    This train
    Carries fools and kings
    This train
    All aboard

    I said now, this train
    Dreams will not be thwarted
    This train
    Faith will be rewarded
    This train
    Hear the steel wheels singin'
    This train
    Bells of freedom ringin'

    Come on this train...

    People get ready
    You don't need no ticket
    All you gotta do is
    Just get on board
    On board this train
    People get ready
    You don't need no ticket
    (Oh I know you don't)
    You don't need no ticket
    You just get on board
    (People get ready)
    You just thank the lord
    (People get ready)
    You just thank the lord
    (People get ready)
    You just thank the lord
    (People get ready)

    Come on this train
    People get ready
    Come on this train
    People get ready
