Badlands - Live

Everybody gets a little nervous

When their boss shows up to work, right?

I don't know if you'd notice, but

Me and my friends have all been sweatin'

Bullets up here all night, um

Because the boss is here

Ladies and gentlemen, Bruce Springsteen

Evening

One, two

Lights out tonight, trouble in the heartland

Got a head-on collision smashin' in my guts, man

I'm caught in a crossfire that I don't understand

But there's one thing I know for sure

I don't give a damn for the same old played-out scenes

I don't give a damn for just the in-betweens

Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul

I want control right now

Talk about a dream, try to make it real

Wake up in the night with a fear so real

Spend your life waiting for a moment

That just don't come

Don't waste your time waiting

Badlands, you gotta live it every day

Let the broken hearts stand as the price you've gotta pay

Keep pushin' 'til it's understood

These badlands start treatin' us good

(Badlands)

Workin' in the fields 'til you get your back burned

Workin' 'neath the wheels 'til you get your facts learned

Baby, I got my facts learned real good right now

You better get it straight, darling

Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king

And a king ain't satisfied 'til he rules everything

I wanna go out tonight

I wanna find out what I got

Well, I believe in the love that you gave me

I believe in the faith that could save me

I believe in the hope and I pray

That someday it may raise me above these

Badlands, you gotta live it every day

Let the broken hearts stand as the price you've gotta pay

Keep pushin' 'til it's understood

And these badlands start treatin' us good

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh, come on)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh, come on)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh, come on)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside

That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive

I wanna find one face that ain't lookin' through me

I wanna find one place

I wanna spit in the face of these

Badlands, you gotta live it every day

Let the broken hearts stand as the price you've gotta pay

Keep pushin' 'til it's understood

And these badlands start treatin' us good

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Badlands

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Badlands

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Badlands

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Bandlands

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
