Bruce Springsteen - Darlington County lyrics
[Bruce Springsteen - Darlington County lyrics]
Me and Wayne on the Fourth of July
Driving in to Darlington County
Looking for some work on the county line
We drove down from New York City
Where the girls are pretty but they
Just want to know your name
Driving in to Darlington City
Got a union connection with
An uncle of Wayne's
We drove 800 miles without seeing a cop
We got rock and roll music
Blasting off the t-top, singing
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Hey little girl, standing on the corner
Today's your lucky day for sure, all right
Me and my buddy, we're from New York City
We got $200 we want to rock all night
Girl, you're looking at two big spenders
Why, the world don't know what
Me and Wayne might do
Our pa's each own one of
The World Trade Centers
For a kiss and a smile
I'll give mine all to you
Come on baby, take a seat on my fender
It's a long night, and tell me
What else were you gonna do?
Just me and you, we could
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Little girl, sitting in the window
Ain't seen my buddy in seven days
County man tells me the same thing
He don't work and he don't get paid
Little girl, you're so young and pretty
Walk with me and you can have your way
And we'll leave this Darlington City
For a ride down that Dixie Highway
Driving out of Darlington County
My eyes seen the glory of
The coming of the Lord
Driving out of Darlington County
Seen Wayne handcuffed to the bumper
Of a state trooper's Ford
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la
