Working on the highway歌詞

[ti:Working On The Highway]
[ar:Bruce Springsteen]
[00:06.14]Friday night′s pay night guys fresh out of work
[00:11.30]Talking about the weekend scrubbing off the dirt
[00:16.19]Some heading home to their families some looking to get hurt
[00:21.45]Some going down to Stovell wearing trouble on their shirts
[00:26.67]I work for the county out on 95
[00:31.81]All day I hold a red flag and watch the traffic pass me by
[00:37.07]In my head I keep a picture of a pretty little miss
[00:42.49]Someday mister I′m gonna lead a better life than this
[00:46.01]Working on the highway laying down the blacktop
[00:47.57]Working on the highway all day long I don′t stop
[00:50.40]Working on the highway blasting through the bedrock
[00:52.90]Working on the highway, working on the highway
[01:06.37]I met her at a dance down at the union hall
[01:10.88]She was standing with her brothers back up against the wall
[01:16.07]Sometimes we′d go walking down the union tracks
[01:21.24]One day I looked straight at her and she looked straight back
[01:24.28]Working on the highway...
[01:25.73]Working on the highway laying down the blacktop
[01:28.53]Working on the highway all day long I don′t stop
[01:29.67]Working on the highway blasting through the bedrock
[01:32.27]Working on the highway, working on the highway
[01:44.99]I saved up my money and I put it all away
[01:47.79]I went to see her daddy but we didn′t have much to say
[01:50.39]"Son can′t you see that she′s just a little girl
[01:52.75]She don′t know nothing about this cruel cruel world"
[01:59.27]We lit out down to Florida we got along all right
[02:04.60]One day her brothers came and got her and they took me in a black and white
[02:09.92]The prosecutor kept the promise that he made on that day
[02:15.03]And the judge got mad and he put me straight away
[02:20.15]I wake up every morning to the work bell clang
[02:25.35]Me and the warden go swinging on the Charlotte County road gang
[02:28.61]Working on the highway...
[02:29.56]Working on the highway laying down the blacktop
[02:32.10]Working on the highway all day long I don′t stop
[02:34.41]Working on the highway blasting through the bedrock
[02:36.78]Working on the highway, working on the highway
[02:38.72]Working on the highway laying down the blacktop
[02:42.41]Working on the highway all day long I don′t stop
[02:44.48]Working on the highway blasting through the bedrock
[02:46.89]Working on the highway, working on the highway
