Lost In The Flood(Live)

Lost In The Flood (Live) - Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band[00:00:00]

The ragamuffin gunner is returning home like a hungry runaway[00:00:56]

He walks through town all alone[00:01:03]

"He must be from the fort "[00:01:06]

He hears the high school girls say[00:01:08]

His countryside's burning with wolfman fairies[00:01:11]

Dressed in drag for homicide[00:01:14]

The hit-and-run plead sanctuary [00:01:19]

Neath a holy stone they hide[00:01:23]

They're breaking beams and crosses[00:01:27]

With a spastic's reeling perfection[00:01:31]

Nuns run bald through Vatican halls pregnant [00:01:35]

Pleading immaculate conception[00:01:39]

And everybody's wrecked on Main Street[00:01:43]

From drinking unholy blood[00:01:47]

Sticker smiles sweet as Gunner breathes deep [00:01:51]

His ankles caked in mud[00:01:55]

And I said "Hey gunner man that's qucksand [00:02:00]

That's quicksand that ain't mud[00:02:05]

Have you thrown your senses to the war [00:02:09]

Or did you lose them in the flood "[00:02:12]

That pure American brother [00:02:19]

Dull-eyed and empty-faced[00:02:23]

Races Sundays in Jersey in a Chevy stock super eight[00:02:27]

He rides er low on the hip [00:02:34]

On the side he's got "Bound for Glory" in red [00:02:36]

White and blue flash paint[00:02:39]

He leans on the hood telling racing stories [00:02:43]

The kids call him Jimmy the Saint[00:02:46]

Well that blaze-and-noise boy [00:02:56]

He's gunning that b**ch loaded to blasting point[00:02:58]

He rides head first into a hurricane[00:03:03]

And disappears into a point[00:03:07]

And there's nothing left[00:03:11]

But some blood where the body fell [00:03:12]

That is nothing left that you could sell[00:03:15]

Just junk all across the horizon [00:03:19]

A real highwayman's farewell[00:03:23]

And I said "Hey kid you think that's oil [00:03:28]

Man that ain't oil that's blood"[00:03:33]

I wonder what he was thinking[00:03:36]

When he hit that storm [00:03:38]

Or was he just lost in the flood [00:03:41]

Eighth Avenue sailors in satin[00:03:58]

Shirts whisper in the air[00:04:00]

Some storefront incarnation of Maria [00:04:05]

She's putting on me the stare[00:04:09]

And Bronx's best apostle stands[00:04:13]

With his hand on his own hardware[00:04:17]

Everything stops you hear five quick shots [00:04:21]

The cops come up for air[00:04:25]

And now the whiz-bang gang from uptown [00:04:31]

They're shooting up the street[00:04:34]

And that cat from the Bronx starts letting loose [00:04:38]

But he gets blown right off his feet[00:04:42]

And some kid comes blasting around the corner [00:04:46]

But a cop puts him right away[00:04:50]

He lays on the street holding his leg [00:04:54]

Screaming something in Spanish [00:04:55]

Still breathing when I walked away[00:04:58]

And somebody said "Hey man [00:05:02]

Did you see that His body hit the street[00:05:05]

With such a beautiful thud"[00:05:08]

I wonder what the dude was saying [00:05:11]

Or was he just lost in the flood [00:05:15]

He said Hey man did you see that [00:05:18]

Those poor cats are sure messed up[00:05:22]

I wonder what they were getting into [00:05:26]

Or were they just lost in the flood[00:05:30]
