[Springsteen Video] – Maria’s Bed 20.07.2013

MARIA’S BED VIDEO

Bruce Springsteen played Maria’s Bed during his acoustic pre show in Belfast on July 20th 2013.

LYRICS

Been on a barbed wire highway 40 days and nights
I ain’t complain’n that’s my job and it suits me right
I got a sweet soul fever rushin’ around my head
I’m gonna sleep tonight in Maria’s bed

Got on a dead man’s suit and smilin’ skull ring
Lucky graveyard boots and a song to sing
I keep my heart in my work, my troubles in my head
And I keep my soul in Maria’s bed

I been up on sugar mountain, ‘cross the sweet blue sea
I walked the valley of love and tears and mystery
I got run out’a luck and gave myself up for dead
Then I drank the cool clear waters from Maria’s bed

She give me candy stick kisses ‘neath a wolf dog moon
One sweet breath and she’ll take you, mister, to the upper room

I was burned by the angels, sold wings of lead
Then I fell in the roses and sweet salvation of Maria’s bed

I been out in the desert, doin’ my time
Siftin’ through the dust for fools gold, lookin’ for a sign
Holy man said, “Hold on, brother, there’s a light up ahead.”
Ain’t nothin’ like the light that shines on me in Maria’s bed

Well I take my blessings at the riverhead
I’m living in the light of Maria’s bed

[Springsteen Video] – Jesus Was An Only Son

Bruce Springsteen played a great live version of Jesus Was An Only Son for the WH1 Storytellers.

VIDEO

LYRICS

Jesus was an only son
As he walked up Calvary Hill
His mother Mary walking beside him
In the path where his blood spilled
Jesus was an only son
In the hills of Nazareth
As he lay reading the Psalms of David
At his mother’s feet

A mother prays, “Sleep tight, my child, sleep well
For I’ll be at your side
That no shadow, no darkness, no tolling bell,
Shall pierce your dreams this night.”

In the garden at Gethsemane
He prayed for the life he’d never live,
He beseeched his Heavenly Father to remove
The cup of death from his lips

Now there’s a loss that can never be replaced,
A destination that can never be reached,
A light you’ll never find in another’s face,
A sea whose distance cannot be breached

Well Jesus kissed his mother’s hands
Whispered, “Mother, still your tears,
For remember the soul of the universe
Willed a world and it appeared.”

LYRICS

Driving in to Darlington County
Me and Wayne on the Fourth of July
Driving in to Darlington County
Looking for some work on the county line
We drove down from New York City
Where the girls are pretty but they just want to know your name
Driving in to Darlington City
Got a union connection with an uncle of Wayne’s
We drove eight hundred miles without seeing a cop
We got rock and roll music blasting off the T-top singing

Sha la la la la la la la la, Sha la la la la la la

Hey little girl standing on the corner
Today’s your lucky day for sure all right
Me and my buddy we’re from New York City
We got two hundred dollars we want to rock all night
Girl you’re looking at two big spenders
Why the world don’t know what me and Wayne might do
Our pa’s each own one of the World Trade Centers
For a kiss and a smile I’ll give mine all to you
Come on baby take a seat on my fender
It’s a long night and tell me what else were you gonna do
Just me and you we could Continue reading

SEEDS VIDEO

LYRICS

Well a great black river a man had found
So he put all his money in a hole in the ground
And sent a big steel arm drivin’ down down down
Man now I live on the streets of Houston town

Packed up my wife and kids when winter came along
And we headed down south with just spit and a song
But they said “Sorry son it’s gone gone gone”

Well there’s men hunkered down by the railroad tracks
The Elkhorn Special blowin’ my hair back
Tents pitched on the highway in the dirty moonlight
And I don’t know where I’m gonna sleep tonight

Parked in the lumberyard freezin’ our asses off
My kids in the back seat got a graveyard cough
Well I’m sleepin’ up in front with my wife
Billy club tappin’ on the windshield in the middle of the night
Says “Move along man move along”

Well big limousine long shiny and black
You don’t look ahead you don’t look back
How many times can you get up after you’ve been hit?
Well I swear if I could spare the spit
I’d lay one on your shiny chrome
And send you on your way back home
So if you’re gonna leave your town where the north wind blow
To go on down where that sweet soda river flow
Well you better think twice on it Jack
You’re better off buyin’ a shotgun dead off the rack
You ain’t gonna find nothin’ down here friend
Except seeds blowin’ up the highway in the south wind
Movin’ on movin’ on it’s gone gone it’s all gone

[Springsteen Video] – Hunter Of Invisible Game

Bruce Springsteen inserted Hunter Of Invisible Game in his last album High Hopes.

LYRICS

I hauled myself up out of the ditch
And built me an ark of gopher wood and pitch
Sat down by the roadside and waited on the rain
I am the hunter of invisible game

Well I awoke last night to the heavy clickin’ and clack
And a scarecrow on fire ‘long the railroad tracks
There were empty cities and burnin’ plains
I am the hunter of invisible game

We all come up a little short and we go down hard
These days I spend my time skipping through the dark
Through the empires of dust, I chant your name
I am the hunter of invisible game

Through the bone yard rattle and black smoke
We rolled on,
Down into the valley
Where the beast has his throne
There I sing my song and I sharpen my blade
I am the hunter of invisible game Continue reading

Long Walk Home – Official Video

LONG WALK HOME LYRICS

Last night I stood at your doorstep
Trying to figure out what went wrong
You just slipped somethin’ into my palm
Then you were gone
I could smell the same deep green of summer
Above me the same night sky was glowin’
In the distance I could see the town where I was born

It’s gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty Darling, don’t wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
A long walk home
