Bruce Springsteen Born In The U.s.a. Downbound Train I had a job, i had a girl I had something going mister in this world I got laid off down at the lumber yard Our love went bad, times got hard Now i work down at the carwash Where all it ever does is rain Don't you feel like you're a rider on a downbound train She just said "joe i gotta go We had it once we ain't got it any more" She packed her bags left me behind She bought a ticket on the central line Nights as i sleep, i hear that whistle whining I feel her kiss in the misty rain And i feel like i'm a rider on a downbound train Last night i heard your voice You were crying, crying, you were so alone You said your love had never died You were waiting for me at home Put on my jacket, i ran through the woods I ran till i thought my chest would explode There in the clearing, beyond the highway In the moonlight, our wedding house shone I rushed through the yard, i burst through the front door My head pounding hard, up the stairs i climbed The room was dark, our bed was empty Then i heard that long whistle whine And i dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried Now i swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gang Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain Now don't it feel like you're a rider on a downbound train |
