Racing In The Street



Emmylou Harris - Racing In The Street - Текст песни

  • текст
(Bruce Springsteen)

I got a sixty-nine Chevy with a 396 
Fuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor 
She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot 
Outside the Seven-Eleven store 
Me and my partner Sonny built her straight out of scratch 
And he rides with me from town to town 
We only run for the money got no strings attached 
We shut 'em up and then we shut 'em down 
Tonight tonight the strip's just right 
I'm gonna blow 'em off in my first heat 
Summer's here and the time is right 
For racin' in the street 

We take all the action we can meet 
And we cover all the northeast states 
When the strip shuts down we run 'em in the street 
>From the fire roads to the interstate 
Now 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 
And go racin' in the street 
Tonight tonight the strip's just right 
I'm gonna blow 'em all out of their seats 
Calling out around the world 
We're going racin' in the street 

He met her on the strip three years ago 
In a Camaro with this dude from L.A. 
He blew that Camaro off his back and he drove that little girl away 
But now there's wrinkles around his baby's eyes 
And she cries herself to sleep at night 
When he comes home the house is dark 
She says 'Baby did you make it alright?' 
She sits on the porch of her daddy's house 
But all her pretty dreams are torn 
She stares out alone into the night 
With the eyes of one who hates for just being born 
For all the shut-down strangers and hot rod angels 

Rumbling 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 
For racin' in the street
