(Bruce Springsteen)
2
I got a sixty-nine Chevy with a 396
3
Fuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor
4
She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot
5
Outside the Seven-Eleven store
6
Me and my partner Sonny built her straight out of scratch
7
And he rides with me from town to town
8
We only run for the money got no strings attached
9
We shut 'em up and then we shut 'em down
10
Tonight tonight the strip's just right
11
I'm gonna blow 'em off in my first heat
12
Summer's here and the time is right
13
For racin' in the street
14
We take all the action we can meet
15
And we cover all the northeast states
16
When the strip shuts down we run 'em in the street
17
>From the fire roads to the interstate
18
Now Some guys they just give up living
19
And start dying little by little piece by piece
20
Some guys come home from work and wash up
21
And go racin' in the street
22
Tonight tonight the strip's just right
23
I'm gonna blow 'em all out of their seats
24
Calling out around the world
25
We're going racin' in the street
26
He met her on the strip three years ago
27
In a Camaro with this dude from L.A.
28
He blew that Camaro off his back and he drove that little girl away
29
But now there's wrinkles around his baby's eyes
30
And she cries herself to sleep at night
31
When he comes home the house is dark
32
She says 'Baby did you make it alright?'
33
She sits on the porch of her daddy's house
34
But all her pretty dreams are torn
35
She stares out alone into the night
36
With the eyes of one who hates for just being born
37
For all the shut-down strangers and hot rod angels
38
Rumbling through this promised land
39
Tonight my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea
40
And wash these sins off our hands
41
Tonight tonight the highway's bright
42
Out of our way mister you best keep
43
Cause summer's here and the time is right
44
For racin' in the street
