Bruce Springsteen: Straight Time

aus dem Album: Ghost Of Tom Joad

Songtext:
Got out of prison back in '86 and i found a wife Magnetfolien
Walked the clean and narrowjust tryin' to stay out and stay alive
Got a job at the rendering plant, it ain't gonna make me rich Computer Tutorials
In the darkness before dinner comes
Sometimes i can feel the itch Immobilien Bonn
I got a cold mind to go tripping across that thin line
I'm sick of doin' straight time Basteln Muttertag
My uncle's at the evenin' table, makes his living runnin' hot cars
Slips me a hundred dollar bill says 3D Häuser Nachbau
"charlie you best remember who your friends are.
"got a cold mind to go trippin' 'cross that thin line Günstige Visitenkarten
I ain't makin' straight time
Eight years in it feels like you're gonna die Basteln mit Filz
But you get used to anything
Sooner or later it just becomes your life Wellness Usedom
Kitchen floor in the evening tossin' my little babies high
Mary's smiling but she's watching me out of the corner of her eye Immobilien Bergisch Gladbach
Seems you can't get any more than half free
I step out onto the front porch and suck the cold air deep inside of me Saadiyat Island
Got a cold mind to go trippin' 'cross that thin line
I'm sick of doin' straight time
In the basement huntin' gun and a hacksaw
Sip a beer and thirteen inches of barrel drop to the floor
Come home in the evening, can't get the smell from my hands
Lay my head down on the pillow
And go driftin' off into foreign lands
