Sugested Lyrics from Bruce Springsteen

Long Time Comin’ (Live in Dublin)

Out where the creek turns shallow and sandyAnd the moon comes

It’s Hard to Be a Saint in the City [Hammersmith Odeon, London ’75]

had skin like leather and the diamond-hard look of

Stolen Car (Tracks Version)

I found me a little girl and I settled

Born to Run [Live 1975/85]

In the day we sweat it out in the streets of

4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)

Sandy, the aurora is rising behind usThose pier lights, our carnival

Dancing In The Dark / Livin’ On A Prayer

You can't start a fireYou can't start a fire without a

Because the Night

me now, baby, here as I amPull me close,

Blind Spot

inhabited each otherLike it was some kind of diseaseI

Cindy

I pick you up with flower when you get off from

Dancing In The Dark

get up in the eveningAnd I ain't got nothing

Fire (Live at Winterland Arena, San Francisco, CA - Dec. 15, 1978)

is called "Fire"A one, two, three, driving in

Give My Love to Rose

found him by the railroad tracks this morningI could

I saw her standing there

1 - 2 - 3 - 4Well, she was just seventeenYou

It’s Hard to Be a Saint in the City

I had skin like leather and the diamond-hard look of a

I’m On Fire

Hey little girl, is your daddy home?Did he go and leave

Mansion on the Hill

There's a place out on the edge of town, sirRisin' above

Maybe I Don’t Know You

New York Comeback

crowd dies down to a silent hushAnd everyone heads

Rave On! (Live at Madison Square Garden, New York, NY - 09/21/79)

WellThe little things you say and doMake me want to be

We've prepared the official lyrics The Wish by Bruce Springsteen on rare-Lyrics.com.
The complete song text appears below.


[Verse 1]
Dirty old street all slushed up in the rain and snow
Little boy and his ma shivering outside a rundown music store window
That night on top of a Christmas tree shines one beautiful star
And lying underneath, a brand-new Japanese guitar

[Verse 2]
I remember in the morning, Ma, hearing your alarm clock ring
I'd lie in bed and listen to you gettin' ready for work
The sound of your makeup case on the sink
And the ladies at the office, all lipstick, perfume, and rustlin' skirts
And how proud and happy you always looked walking home from work

[Verse 3]
If Pa's eyes were windows into a world so deadly and true
You couldn't stop me from looking, but you kept me from crawlin' through
And if it's a funny old world, Ma, where a little boy's wishes come true
Well, I got a few left in my pocket and a special one just for you

[Verse 4]
It ain't no phone call on Sunday, flowers, or a Mother's Day card
It ain't no house on a hill with a garden and a nice little yard
I got my hot rod down on Bond Street, I'm older
But you'll know me in a glance
We'll find us a little rock 'n roll bar and, baby, we'll go out and dance
(Alright now, c'mon)
[Verse 5]
Well, it was me in my Beatle boots, you in pink curlers and matador pants
Pullin' me up off the couch to do the twist for my uncles and aunts
Well, I found a girl of my own now, Ma
I popped the question on your birthday
She stood waiting on the front porch
While you were telling me to get out there
And say what it was that I had to say

[Verse 6]
Last night we all sat around laughing at the things that guitar bought us
And I layed awake thinking about the other things it's brought us
Well, tonight I'm taking requests here in the kitchen
This one's for you, Ma, let me come right out and say it
It's overdue
But baby, if you're looking for a sad song, well I ain't gonna play it
(C'mon now)

[Guitar Solo]
