  • (bruce springsteen)
  • I got a sixty-nine chevy with a 396
  • Fuelie heads and a hurst on the floor
  • Shes 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 strips just right
  • Im gonna blow em off in my first heat
  • Summers 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 strips just right
  • Im gonna blow em all out of their seats
  • Calling out around the world
  • Were 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 theres wrinkles around his babys 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 daddys 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 were gonna ride to the sea
  • And wash these sins off our hands
  • Tonight tonight the highways bright
  • Out of our way mister you best keep
  • Cause summers here and the time is right
  • For racin in the street
