Bruce Springsteen - Candy's Boy lyrics
[Bruce Springsteen - Candy's Boy lyrics]
Well in Candy's room there are pictures
Of her savior on the wall
But to get to Candy's room you've gotta
Walk the darkness of Candy's hall
Strangers from the city call my baby's
Number and they bring Candy toys
But when I come knockin' she smiles pretty
She knows tonight I'm gonna be Candy's boy
Well in the olden days when the Mongolian
Gangs rode herd out on Route 9
We'd go riding in the rain runnin'
South way down through the pines
Weekends in the sun in that cheap
Motel down by the dynamo
We loved each other till
There was nothin' left
And drove that old car as hard
And fast as she would go
Well like a cold winter wind blowing
In babe I needed you
But Candy's got a man who takes care
Of her better than I do
Well there's machines and there's fire
Waiting for us on the edge of town
And there's some roughboys for hire
And they're waiting to blow me and Candy down
It's all right 'cause they can't touch
Us now they'll never destroy
My sweet love for I will
Forever be Candy's boy
My sweet love for I will
Forever be Candy's boy
Of her savior on the wall
But to get to Candy's room you've gotta
Walk the darkness of Candy's hall
Strangers from the city call my baby's
Number and they bring Candy toys
But when I come knockin' she smiles pretty
She knows tonight I'm gonna be Candy's boy
Well in the olden days when the Mongolian
Gangs rode herd out on Route 9
We'd go riding in the rain runnin'
South way down through the pines
Weekends in the sun in that cheap
Motel down by the dynamo
We loved each other till
There was nothin' left
And drove that old car as hard
And fast as she would go
Well like a cold winter wind blowing
In babe I needed you
But Candy's got a man who takes care
Of her better than I do
Well there's machines and there's fire
Waiting for us on the edge of town
And there's some roughboys for hire
And they're waiting to blow me and Candy down
It's all right 'cause they can't touch
Us now they'll never destroy
My sweet love for I will
Forever be Candy's boy
My sweet love for I will
Forever be Candy's boy
