Born to Run

In the day we sweat it out on the streets

Of a runaway American dream

At night we ride through the mansions of glory

In suicide machines

Sprung from cages on Highway 9

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 were

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 'til 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 want to know if love is wild

Babe, I want to know if love is real

Oh, can you show me

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 you, Wendy, on the street tonight

In an everlasting kiss

(One, two, three, four)

The highway's jammed with broken heroes

On a last chance power drive

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 'til then, tramps like us

Baby, we were born to run

Oh honey, tramps like us

Baby, we were born to run

Come on with me, tramps like us

Baby, we were born to run

Thunder Road

A screen door slams, Mary's dress sways

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 down on the tracks

Oh-oh, come take my hand

We're 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-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 ain't free

And I know you're lonely for words that I ain't spoken

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

On 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

When you get to the porch

They're gone on the wind

So Mary, climb in

It's a town full of losers

I'm pulling out of here to win

Badlands

Well, lights out tonight

Trouble in the heartland

Got a head on collision

Smashin' in my guts, man

I'm caught in a cross fire

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

Baby, 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 waiting

For a moment that just don't come

Well, don't waste your time waiting

Badlands, you gotta live it everyday

Let the broken hearts stand

As the price you've gotta pay

Keep pushin' 'til it's understood

And these badlands start treating us good

Workin' in the fields

That'll get your back burned

Workin' 'neath the wheels

'Til you get your facts learned

Baby, I got my facts

Learned real good right now

You better get it straight, darlin'

Poor man wanna be rich

Rich man wanna be king

And a king ain't satisfied

'Til he rules everything

I wanna go out tonight

I wanna find out what I got

Well, I believe in the love that you gave me

I believe in the faith that can save me

I believe in the hope and I pray

That someday it may raise me

Above these

Badlands, you gotta live it everyday

Let the broken hearts stand

As the price you've gotta pay

Keep pushin' 'til it's understood

And these badlands start treating us good

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

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 gotta live it everyday

Let the broken hearts stand

As the price you've gotta pay

Keep movin' 'til it's understood

And these badlands start treating us good

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, badlands

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, badlands

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, badlands

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, badlands

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 drive out of this valley

Down to where the fields were green

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 nineteenth 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

Yeah, yeah

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-ide

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Hungry Heart

Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack

I went out for a ride and I never went back

Like a river that don't know where it's flowing

I took a wrong turn and I just kept going

[CHORUS]

Everybody's got a hungry heart

Everybody's got a hungry heart

Lay down your money and you 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 Kingstone again

[CHORUS]

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

Atlantic City

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 busin' 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 its teeth
Everything dies baby that's a fact

But maybe everything 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 in too deep and I could not pay

So I drew what I had from the Central Trust

And I bought us two tickets on that Coast City bus
Everything dies baby that's a fact

But maybe everything that dies someday comes back

Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty and meet me tonight in Atlantic City
Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold but with you forever I'll stay

We're goin' out where the sands turnin' to gold so put on your stockin's cause the nights gettin' cold and maybe everything dies

That's a fact but maybe everything 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

Dancing In the Dark

I get up in the evenin'

And I ain't got nothin' to say

I come home in the mornin'

I go to bed feelin' the same way

I ain't nothin' but tired

Man, I'm just tired and bored with myself

Hey there, baby, I could use just a little help

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 dancin' in the dark

Messages keeps gettin' clearer

Radio's on and I'm movin' 'round my place

I check my look in the mirror

Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face

Man, I ain't gettin' nowhere

I'm just livin' in a dump like this

There's somethin' happenin' somewhere

Baby, I just know that there is

You can't start a fire

You can't start a fire without a spark

Even if we're just dancin' in the dark

You sit around gettin' older

There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me

I'll shake this world off my shoulders

Come on, baby, this laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town

And they'll be carvin' you up alright

They say you gotta stay hungry

Hey baby, I'm just about starvin' tonight

I'm dyin' for some action

I'm sick of sittin' 'round here tryin' to write this book

I need a love reaction

Come on now, baby, gimme just one look

You can't start a fire

Born In The U.S.A.

Born down in a dead man's town

The first kick I took was when I hit the ground

End up like a dog that's been beat too much

'Til you spend half your life just to cover it up now

Born in the USA

I was born in the USA

I was born in the USA

Born in the USA now

Got in a little hometown jam

So they put a rifle in my hands

Sent me off to a foreign land

To go and kill the yellow man

Born in the USA

I was born in the USA

I was born in the USA

I was born in the USA

Come back home to the refinery

Hiring man said, "Son if it was up to me"

Went down to see my VA man

He said, "Son, don't you understand now?"

(Ok)

(No, no)

(No, no, no)

I had a brother at Khe Sanh

Fighting off all 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 the 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 USA

I was born in the USA now

Born in the USA

I'm a long gone Daddy in the USA now

Born in the USA

Born in the USA

Born in the USA

I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the USA now

(Oh, no) 

(Oh, no, no, no)

(Oh, no, no)

(Oh, no, no, no)

Hey

(Oh, no, no)

Born in the USA

I was born in the USA

I was born in the USA

I was born in the USA

Come back home to the refinery

Hiring man said, "Son if it was up to me"

Went down to see my VA man

He said, "Son, don't you understand now?"

(Ok)

(No, no)

(No, no, no)

I had a brother at Khe Sanh

Fighting off all 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 the 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 USA

I was born in the USA now

Born in the USA

I'm a long gone Daddy in the USA now

Born in the USA

Born in the USA

Born in the USA

I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the USA now

(Oh, no) 

(Oh, no, no, no)

(Oh, no, no)

(Oh, no, no, no)

Hey

(Oh, no, no)

Woo

My Hometown

I was eight years old

And running with a dime in my hand

To the bus stop to pick

Up a paper for my old man

I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick

And steer as we drove through town

He'd tousle my hair

And say, "Son, take a good look around"

This is your hometown

This is your hometown

This is your hometown

This is your hometown"

In '65 tension was running high

At my high school

There was a lot of fights

Between the black and white

There was nothing you could do

Two cars at a light on a Saturday night

In the back seat there was a gun

Words were passed in a shotgun blast

Troubled times had come 

To my hometown

To my hometown

To my hometown

To my hometown

Now Main Street's whitewashed windows

And vacant stores

Seems like there ain't nobody

Wants to come down here no more

They're closing down the textile mill

Across the railroad tracks

Foreman says, "These jobs are going, boys

And they ain't coming back 

To your hometown

To your hometown

To your hometown

To your hometown"

Last night me and Kate we laid in bed

Talking about getting out

Packing up our bags, maybe heading south

I'm thirty-five, we got a boy of our own now

Last night I sat him up behind the wheel

And said, "Son, take a good look around

This is your hometown"

Glory Days

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

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

Glory days well they'll pass you by

Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye

Glory days, glory days

Think I'm going down to the well tonight

And I'm going to drink 'til 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 yeah they'll pass you by

Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye

Glory days, glory days

Yeah, they'll pass you by

Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye

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 want to read your mind
To 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 who 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
Well 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
Lost in the darkness of our love
God have mercy on the man
Who doubts what he's sure of

Human Touch

You and me we were the pretenders

We let it all slip away

In the end what don't surrender

Well the world just strips away
Girl ain't no kindness in the face of strangers

Ain't gonna find no miracles here

Well you can wait on your blessings my darlin'

But I got a deal for you right here
I ain't lookin' for prayers or pity

I ain't comin' 'round searchin' for a crutch

I just want someone to talk to

And a little of that human touch

Just a little of that human touch
Ain't no mercy on the streets of this town

Ain't no bread from heavenly skies

Ain't nobody drawin' wine from this blood

It's just you and me tonight
Tell me in a world without pity

Do you think what I'm askin's 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 you prize

Well it comes with a hard hard price

You can't shut off the risk and the pain

Without losin' the love that remains

We're all riders on this train
So you been broken and you been hurt

Show me somebody who ain't

Yeah I know I ain't nobody's bargain

But hell a little touchup

And a litte paint...
You might need somethin' to hold on to

When all the answers they don't amount to much

Somebody that you can just talk to

And a little of that human touch
Baby in a world without pity

Do you think what I'm askin's too much ?

I just want to feel you in my arms

And share a little of that human touch...

Better Days

Well my soul checked out missing as I sat listening

To the hours and minutes tickin' away

Yeah just sittin' around waitin' for my life to begin

While it was all just slippin' away

I'm tired of waitin' for tomorrow to come

Or that train to come roarin' 'round the bend

I got a new suit of clothes a pretty red rose

And a woman I can call my friend
These are better days baby

Yeah there's better days shining through

These are better days baby

Better days with a girl like you
Well I took a piss at fortune's sweet kiss

It's like eatin' caviar and dirt

It's sad funny ending to find yourself pretending

A rich man in a poor man's shirt

Now my ass was draggin' when from a passin' gypsy wagon

Your heart like a diamond shone

Tonight I'm layin' in your arms carvin' lucky charms

Out of these hard luck bones
These are better days baby

These are better days it's true

These are better days

There's better days shining through
Now a life of leisure and a pirate's treasure

Don't make much for tragedy

But it's a sad man my friend who's livin' in his own skin

And can't stand the company

Every fool's got a reason for feelin' sorry for himself

And turning his heart to stone

Tonight this fool's halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell

And I feel like I'm comin' home
These are better days baby

There's better days shining through

Streets Of Philadelphia

I was bruised and battered

And I couldn't tell what I felt

I was unrecognizable to myself

Saw my reflection in a window

I didn't know my own face

Oh brother are you gonna leave me wasting 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

And my clothes don't fit me no more

I walked a thousand miles just to slip this 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

Secret Garden

She'll let you in her house
If you come knockin' late at night
She'll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right

If you pay the price
She'll let you deep inside
But there's a secret garden she hides

She'll let you in her car
To go drivin' round
She'll let you into the parts of herself
That'll bring you down

She'll let you in herheart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don't think twice

You've gone a million miles
How far'd you get
To that place where You can't remember
And you can't forget

She'll lead you down a path
There'll be tenderness in the air
She'll let you come just far enough
So you know she's really there
She'll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
She's got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away

Murder Incorporated

Bobby's got a gun that he keeps beneath his pillow
Out on the street your chances are zero
Take a look around you (come on now)
It ain't too complicated
You're messin' with Murder Incorporated

Now you check over your shoulder everywhere that you go (oh yeah)
Walkin' down the street there's eyes in every shadow (oh yeah)
You better take a look around you (come on now)
That equipment you got's so outdated (come on now)
You can't compete with Murder Incorporated
Everywhere you look now, Murder Incorporated

So you keep a little secret down deep inside your dresser drawer
For dealing with the heat you're feelin' out on the killin' floor
No matter where you step you feel you're never out of danger
So the comfort that you keep's a gold-plated snub-nose thirty-two
I heard that you

You got a job downtown, man, that leaves your head cold (oh yeah)
Everywhere you look life ain't got no soul (oh yeah)
That apartment you live in feels like it's just a place to hide
When you're walkin' down the street you won't meet no one eye to eye
Now, the cops reported you as just another homicide
But I can tell that you were just frustrated
From living with Murder Incorporated

Everywhere you look now, Murder Incorporated

Everywhere you turn, it's Murder Incorporated

Blood Brothers

We played king of the mountain out on the end
The world come chargin' up the hill, and we were women and men
Now there's so much that time, time and memory fade away
We got our own roads to ride and chances we gotta take
We stood side by side each one fightin' for the other
We said until we died we'd always be blood brothers

Now the hardness of this world slowly grinds your dreams away
Makin' a fool's joke out of the promises we make
And what once seemed black and white turns to so many shades of gray
We lose ourselves in work to do and bills to pay
And it's a ride, ride, ride, and there ain't much cover
With no one runnin' by your side my blood brother

On through the houses of the dead past those fallen in their tracks
Always movin' ahead and never lookin' back
Now I don't know how I feel, I don't know how I feel tonight
If I've fallen 'neath the wheel, if I've lost or I've gained sight
I don't even know why, I don't know why I made this call
Or if any of this matters anymore after all

But the stars are burnin' bright like some mystery uncovered
I'll keep movin' through the dark with you in my heart
My blood brother

This Hard Land

Hey there mister can you tell me what happened to the seeds I've sown
Can you give me a reason sir as to why they've never grown
They've just blown around from town to town
Till they're back out on these fields
Where they fall from my hand
Back into the dirt of this hard land 
Now me and my sister from Germantown we did ride
We made our bed sir from the rock on the mountainside
We been blowin' around from town to town
Lookin for a place to stand
Where the sun burst through the cloud to fall like a circle
Like a circle of fire down on this hard land

Now even the rain it don't come 'round
It don't come 'round here no more
And the only sound at night's the wind
Slammin' the back porch door
It just stirs you up like it wants to blow you down
Twistin' and churnin' up the sand
Leavin' all them scarecrows lyin' face down
Face down in the dirt of this hard land

From a building up on the hill 
I can hear a tape deck blastin' "Home on the Range"
I can see them Bar-M choppers sweepin' low across the plains
It's me and you Frank we're lookin' for lost cattle
Our hooves twistin' and churnin' up the sand
We're ridin' in the whirlwind searchin' for lost treasure
Way down south of the Rio Grande
We're ridin' cross that river in the moonlight
Up onto the banks of this hard land

Hey Frank won't ya pack your bags
And meet me tonight down at Liberty Hall
Just one kiss from you my brother and we'll ride until we fall
Well sleep in the fields, we'll sleep by the rivers
And in the morning we'll make a plan
We'll if you can't make it
Stay hard, stay hungry, stay alive
If you can
And meet me in a dream of this hard land

Slammin' the back porch door
It just stirs you up like it wants to blow you down
Twistin' and churnin' up the sand
Leavin' all them scarecrows lyin' face down
Face down in the dirt of this hard land

From a building up on the hill 
I can hear a tape deck blastin' "Home on the Range"
I can see them Bar-M choppers sweepin' low across the plains
It's me and you Frank we're lookin' for lost cattle
Our hooves twistin' and churnin' up the sand
We're ridin' in the whirlwind searchin' for lost treasure
Way down south of the Rio Grande
We're ridin' cross that river in the moonlight
Up onto the banks of this hard land

Hey Frank won't ya pack your bags
And meet me tonight down at Liberty Hall
Just one kiss from you my brother and we'll ride until we fall
Well sleep in the fields, we'll sleep by the rivers
And in the morning we'll make a plan
We'll if you can't make it
Stay hard, stay hungry, stay alive
If you can
And meet me in a dream of this hard land

Greatest Hits Info:

(buy at amazon.com)

Greatest Hits is the first compilation album by the American singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen, released February 27, 1995, on Columbia Records.

It is a collection of some of Springsteen's hit singles and popular album tracks through the years along with four new songs at the end, mostly recorded with the E Street Band in 1995.

The latter constituted Springsteen's first (albeit very partial) release with his backing band since the late 1980s. Some of the songs are shorter versions of the original album releases.

The compilation was commercially successful, hitting number one on the Billboard 200 and UK Albums Chart, and sold six million copies in the U.S.
