Lyrics Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen

Light of Day

Well I've been out of the woods for six days and nights now

I'm a little hot wired and I'm feeling alright now

I got some money in my pocket and I won't need a ride now

I got a big cherry car and my baby by my side now

(alt. I gtta make it down to Galveston by Saturday night)

Well I'm a little hot-wired but I'm feeling ok

And I got a little lost along the way

And I'm just around the corner

From the light of day

Just around the corner

From the light of day

Well driving 500 miles got 100 to go, yeah

I've got rock and roll music on the radio

I've got a brother on the rig who's from the Gulf Coast

He said the girls down there are really the most

Well I got thrown out of work on the Kokomo

Don't ask me what I'm doing cause I don't know

I hope he wasn't joking when he wrote me that letter

Things can't get worse so they got to get better
