Racing In The Street
Bruce Springsteen I got a sixtyFuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor Outside the SevenAnd he rides with me from town to town She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot Me and my partner Sonny built her straight out of scratch We only run for the money got no strings attatched Tonight tonight the strip's just right We shut 'em up and then we shut 'em down I wanna blow 'em off in my first heat Summer's here and the time is right We take all the action we can meet We're goin' racin' in the street When the strip shuts down we run 'em in the street And we cover all the northeast state From the fire roads to the interstate Some guys they just give up living And start dying little by little piece by piece Some guys come home from work and wash up Then go rain' in the street Tonight tonight the strip's just right I wanna blow 'em all out of their seats Calling out around the world We're going racin' in the street In a Camaro with this dude from L.A. I met her on the strip three years ago But now there's wrinkles around my baby's eyes And she cries herself to sleep at night I blew that Camaro off my back and drove that little girl away When I come home the house is dark She sighs "Baby did you make it all right" She sits on the porch of her daddy's house But all her pretty dreams are torn She stares off alone into the night With the eyes of one who hates for just being born For all the shutRumbling through this promised land Tonight my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea And wash these sins off our hands Tonight tonight the highway's bright Out of our way mister you best keep 'Cause summer's here and the time is right We're goin' racin' in the street |
