Atlantic City
Bruce Springsteen
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' commission's hangin' on by the skin of his teeth Well now, ev'rything dies, baby, that's a fact But maybe ev'rything 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, ev'rything 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 We're goin' out where the sand's turnin' to gold Put on your stockin's baby, `cause the night's getting cold And maybe ev'rything dies, baby, that's a fact But maybe ev'rything 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...00s 10p 70s 80s 90s acoustic alinda the lost girl in long s All-Time Favorites alternative america american americana around the world in 80 songs atlantic city baptism beautiful best songs ever break up soundtrack brilliant brooding bruce Bruce Springsteen bruce springsteen tracks bruce2 chill out cities classic classic rock current favourites death and resurrection decline english Failure Favorite Favorite Artists favorites folk folk rock folksy good story good writing music Great Lyricists great lyrics greatness guitar hard rock harmonica heartland rock Hope HOT Songs indie indie rock izzy listening kipee loss male male vocalist male vocalists male vocals new jersey NJOK No Blood For Oil OLSPUR oldies paraj mi srce perfect places pop Pop Life pretty Pretvori me u puding prolix-fav rebirth reminds me of home repeat rock Rock and Roll rock n roll sad sad and beautiful seen live Sincere singer-songwriter springsteen story storyteller stuff to hear synth the boss the lovely playlist the sad playlist the sweet playlist theodicy tops treeks favourites ubicu se ubijachina unconscionably good USA vocals wangerFamilie
