Lyrics Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen

Bobby Jean

1. Well, I came by your house the other day,

Your mother said you went away

She said there was nothing that I could have done,

B7

There was nothing nobody could say

Me and you we've known each other,

Ever since we were sixteen

I wished I would have known, I wished I could've called you,

Just to say goodbye, Bobby Jean

2. Now you hung with me when all the others,

Turned away, turned up their nose

We liked the same bands, we liked the same music,

We liked the same clothes

We told each other that we were the wildest,

The wildest things we'd ever seen

Now I wished you would have told me, I wished I could have talked to

you,

Just to say goodbye, Bobby Jean

R: Now we went walking in the rain,

Talking about the pain that from the world we hid

Now there aint nobody, no where no how,

gonna ever understand me the way you did

3. Maybe you'll be out there on that road somewhere,

In some bus or train traveling along

In some motel room you'll hear a radio playing,

And you'll hear me sing this song

Well, if you do you'll know I'm thinking of you,

And all the miles in between

And I'm just calling one last time,

B7

Not to change your mind,

But just to say I miss you baby, good luck, goodbye Bobby Jean
