Lost in the Flood - Bruce Springsteen[00:00:01]

The ragamuffin gunner is returning home[00:00:04]

Like a hungry runaway[00:00:07]

He walks through town all alone[00:00:12]

He must be from the fort he hears[00:00:15]

The high school girls say[00:00:17]

His countrysides burning with wolfman[00:00:20]

Fairies dressed in drag for homicide[00:00:23]

The hit and run plead sanctuary[00:00:28]

Neath a holy stone they hide[00:00:33]

They're breaking beams[00:00:37]

And crosses with a spastics reeling perfection[00:00:39]

Nuns run bald through vatican halls pregnant[00:00:46]

Pleading immaculate conception[00:00:50]

And everybodys wrecked on[00:00:54]

Main street from drinking unholy blood[00:00:56]

Sticker smiles sweet as gunner breathes deep[00:01:02]

His ankles caked in mud[00:01:06]

And I said hey gunner man thats quicksand[00:01:11]

Thats quicksand that ain't mud[00:01:16]

Have you thrown your senses to the war[00:01:20]

Or did you lose them in the flood[00:01:23]

That pure american brother[00:01:29]

Dull-eyed and empty-faced[00:01:34]

Races sundays in jersey in a chevy stock super eight[00:01:38]

He rides 'er low on the hip[00:01:46]

On the side hes got bound for glory in red[00:01:47]

White and blue flash paint[00:01:51]

He leans on the hood telling racing stories[00:01:54]

The kids call him jimmy the[00:01:58]

Saint[00:02:00]

Wegll the blaze and noise boy[00:02:04]

Hes gunning that bitch loaded to blasting point[00:02:06]

He rides head first into a hurricane[00:02:12]

And disappears into a point[00:02:16]

And theres nothing left[00:02:19]

But some blood where the body fell[00:02:21]

That is nothing left that you could sell[00:02:23]

Just junk all across the horizon[00:02:27]

A real highwaymans farewell[00:02:31]

And he said hey kid you think thats oil man[00:02:37]

That ain't oil thats blood[00:02:41]

I wonder what he was thinking when he hit that storm[00:02:44]

Or was he just lost in the flood[00:02:48]

Eighth avenue sailors in satin shirts whisper in the air[00:02:58]

Some storefront incarnation of maria[00:03:06]

She's putting on me the stare[00:03:10]

And bronxs best apostle stands with[00:03:14]

His hand on his own hard ware[00:03:19]

Everything stops you hear five[00:03:23]

Quick shots the cops come up for air[00:03:26]

And now the whiz-bang gang from uptown[00:03:31]

They're shooting up the street[00:03:34]

And that cat from the bronx starts letting loose[00:03:38]

But he gets blown right off his feet[00:03:42]

And some kid comes blasting round the corner[00:03:46]

But a cop puts him right away[00:03:50]

He lays on the street[00:03:53]

Holding his leg screaming something in spanish[00:03:55]

Still breathing when I walked away[00:03:58]

And someone said hey man did you see[00:04:02]

That his body hit the street with[00:04:05]

Such a beautiful thud[00:04:08]

I wonder what the dude was saying[00:04:11]

Or was he just lost in the flood[00:04:14]

Hey man did you see that[00:04:18]

Those poor cats are sure messed up[00:04:21]

I wonder what they were getting into[00:04:25]

Or were they just lost in the flood[00:04:29]
