Jungleland - Bruce Springsteen[00:00:00]

The Rangers had a homecoming[00:00:42]

In Harlem late last night[00:00:45]

And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine[00:00:49]

Over the Jersey state line[00:00:53]

Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge[00:00:56]

Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain[00:00:59]

The Rat pulls into town[00:01:04]

Rolls up his pants[00:01:05]

Together they take a stab at romance[00:01:06]

And disappear down Flamingo Lane[00:01:09]

Well the Maximum Lawmen run down Flamingo[00:01:18]

Chasing the Rat and the barefoot girl[00:01:21]

And the kids 'round there live just like shadows[00:01:26]

Always quiet[00:01:29]

Holding hands[00:01:30]

From the churches to the jails[00:01:33]

Tonight all is silence in the world[00:01:36]

As we take our stand[00:01:40]

Down in Jungleland[00:01:45]

The midnight gang's assembled[00:01:55]

And picked a rendezvous for the night[00:01:58]

They'll meet 'neath that giant Exxon sign[00:02:02]

That brings this fair city light[00:02:05]

Man there's an opera out on the Turnpike[00:02:09]

There's a ballet being fought out in the alley[00:02:12]

Until the local cops[00:02:16]

Cherry-Tops[00:02:18]

Rips this holy night[00:02:20]

The street's alive as secret debts are paid[00:02:23]

Contacts made[00:02:27]

They flash unseen[00:02:28]

Kids flash guitars just like switchblades[00:02:30]

Hustling for the record machine[00:02:34]

The hungry and the hunted[00:02:38]

Explode into rock and roll bands[00:02:41]

That face off against each other out in the street[00:02:45]

Down in Jungleland[00:02:49]

In the parking lot the visionaries dress in the latest rage[00:03:27]

Inside the backstreet girls are[00:03:34]

Dancing to the records that the DJ plays[00:03:36]

Lonely-hearted lovers struggle in dark corners[00:03:41]

Desperate as the night moves on[00:03:45]

Just one look and a whisper[00:03:48]

And they're gone[00:03:51]

Beneath the city[00:06:58]

Two hearts beat[00:07:02]

Soul engines running through a night so tender[00:07:05]

In a bedroom locked[00:07:14]

In whispers of soft[00:07:18]

Refusal and then[00:07:22]

Surrender[00:07:26]

In the tunnels uptown[00:07:29]

The Rat's own dream guns him down[00:07:32]

As shots echo down them hallways in the night[00:07:37]

No one watches when the ambulance pulls away[00:07:44]

Or as the girl shuts out the bedroom light[00:07:51]

Outside the street's on fire in a real death waltz[00:07:58]

Between what's flesh and what's fantasy[00:08:05]

And the poets down here don't write nothing at all[00:08:09]

They just stand back and let it all be[00:08:12]

And in the quick of a knife[00:08:17]

They reach for their moment[00:08:18]

And try to make an honest stand[00:08:20]

But they wind up wounded[00:08:24]

Not even dead[00:08:27]

Tonight in Jungleland[00:08:31]

Woo[00:08:44]

Woo[00:08:50]

Oh[00:08:57]

Oh[00:09:03]

Oh[00:09:10]

Oh[00:09:16]
