Lyrics for Shut out the light by Bruce springsteen:
| | | Artist: | Bruce springsteen |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Shut out the light | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 160 | | | | Lyrics: | The runway rushed up at him as he felt the wheels touch down
He stood out on the blacktop and
took a taxi into town
He got out down on Main Street and went into a local bar
He bought a
drink and found a seat in a corner off the dark
Well she called up her mama to make sure the
kids were out of the house
She checked herself out in the dining room mirror
And undid an
extra button on her blouse
He felt her lying next to him, the clock said 4:00 am
He was
staring at the ceiling
He couldn't move his hands
CHORUS
Oh mama mama mama come
quick
I've got the shakes and I'm gonna be sick
Throw your arms around me in the cold dark
night
Hey now mama don't shut out the light
Don't you shut out the light
Don't you
shut out the light
Don't you shut out the light
Don't you shut out the
light
Well on his porch they stretched a banner that said "Johnny Welcome
Home"
Bobby pulled his Ford out of the garage and they polished up the chrome
His mama
said "Johnny oh Johnny, I'm so glad to have you back with me"
His pa said he was sure they'd
give him his job back down at the factory
CHORUS
Well deep in a dark forest, a
forest filled with rain
Beyond a stretch of Maryland pines there's a river without a
name
In the cold black water Johnson Lineir stands
He stares across the lights of the city
and dreams of where he's been
