(Original by Bruce Springsteen)
2
Well they blew up the chicken man in Philly
3
Last night now they blew up his house too
4
Down on the boardwalk
5
They're gettin' ready for a fight
6
Gonna see what them racket boys can do
7
Now there's trouble busin'
8
In from outta state and the D. A.
9
Can't get no relief
10
Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade
11
And the gamblin' commission's hangin' on by
12
The skin of it's teeth
13
[Chorus:]
14
Well now everything dies baby that's a fact
15
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back
16
Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty
17
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
18
Well I got a job and tried to put my money away
19
But I got debts that no honest man can pay
20
So I drew what I had from the Central Trust
21
And I bought us two tickets on that Coast City bus
22
[Chorus:]
23
Now our luck may have died
24
And our love may be cold
25
But with you forever I'll stay
26
We're goin' out
27
Where the sand's turnin' to gold
28
So put on your stockin's baby 'cause
29
The night's getting cold
30
And everything dies baby that's a fact
31
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back
32
Now I been lookin' for a job
33
But it's hard to find
34
Down here it's just winners and losers
35
And don't get caught on the wrong side of that
36
Line
37
Well I'm tired of comin' out on the losin' end
38
So honey last night I met this guy and
39
I'm gonna do a little favor for him
40
Well I guess everything dies baby that's a fact
41
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back
42
Put your hair up nice and set up pretty
43
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
44
Meet me tonight in Atlantic City
45
Meet me tonight in Atlantic City
