Текст песни Badlands, Bruce Springsteen

00:00

Lights out tonight
trouble in the heartland
Got a head-on collision
smashin in my guts, man
I m caught in a cross fire
that I don t understand
But there s one thing I know for sure girl
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
you wake up in the night
With a fear so real
Spend your life waiting
for a moment that just don t come
Well, don t waste your time waiting

(Chorus)
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you ve gotta pay
We ll keep pushin till it s understood
and these badlands start treating us good

Workin in the fields
till you get your back burned
Workin `neath the wheel
till 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
till 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 love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that could save me
I believe in the hope
and I pray that some day
It may raise me above these

(Chorus)

mmmmmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmmm

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 looking through me
I wanna find one place,
I wanna spit in the face of these badlands

(Chorus)
