| | | Artist: | Bruce Springsteen |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | American Skin | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 137 | | | | Lyrics: | 41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41
shots....
and we'll take that ride
'cross this bloody river
to the other side
41
shots... cut through the night
You're kneeling over his body in the vestibule
Praying for
his life
Is it a gun, is it a knife
Is it a wallet, this is your life
It ain't
no secret
It ain't no secret
No secret my friend
You can get killed just for
living
In your American skin
41 shots
Lena gets her son ready for
school
She says "on these streets, Charles
You've got to understand the rules
If an
officer stops you
Promise you'll always be polite,
that you'll never ever run
away
Promise Mama you'll keep your hands in sight"
Is it a gun, is it a
knife
Is it a wallet, this is your life
It ain't no secret
It ain't no secret
No
secret my friend
You can get killed just for living
In your American skin
Is it
a gun, is it a knife
Is it in your heart, is it in your eyes
It ain't no
secret
41 shots... and we'll take that ride
'Cross this bloody river
To the
other side
41 shots... got my boots caked in this mud
We're baptized in these waters and
in each other's blood
Is it a gun, is it a knife
Is it a wallet, this is your
life
It ain't no secret
It ain't no secret
No secret my friend
You can get
killed just for living
