Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen

The (1)____________ (2)________ slams

Mary's (3)__________ sways

Like a vision she dances across the porch

As the radio plays

Roy orbison singing for the lonely

Hey that's me and i want you only

Don't turn me home again

I just can't face myself alone again

Don't run back inside

Darling you know (4)________ what i'm here for

So you're (5)____________ and you're thinking

That (6)__________ we ain't that young anymore

Show a little faith, there's (7)__________ in the night

You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright

Oh and that's alright with me



You can (8)________ (9)____________ your covers

And study (10)________ pain

Make crosses from (11)________ lovers

Throw roses in the rain

Waste your summer praying in vain

For a (12)____________ to rise from these streets

Well now i'm no hero

That's understood

All the redemption i can offer, girl

Is beneath this dirty hood

With a chance to make it good somehow

Hey what (13)________ can we do now?

Except roll (14)________ the window

And let the wind blow

Back your hair

Well the night's (15)______________ open

These two lanes will take us anywhere

We got one last (16)____________ to (17)________ it real

To trade in these wings on some wheels

Climb in back

Heaven's (18)______________ on down the tracks

Oh-oh come take my hand

Riding out tonight to case the promised land

Oh-oh thunder road, oh thunder road oh thunder road

Lying out there like a killer in the sun

Hey i know it's late we can make it if we run

Oh thunder road, sit tight (19)________ hold

Thunder road



Well i got this guitar

And i learned how to make it talk

And my car's out back

If you're ready to take that long walk

From your (20)__________ porch to my front seat

The door's open but the ride it ain't free

And i know you're lonely

For words (21)________ i ain't spoken

But (22)______________ we'll be free

All the promises'll be broken

There were ghosts in the eyes

Of all the boys you sent away

They (23)__________ this dusty (24)__________ road

In the skeleton frames of burned out chevrolets



They scream your (25)________ at night in the street

Your (26)____________________ gown lies in rags at their feet

And in the lonely cool before dawn

You hear their engines roaring on

But when you get to the porch they're gone

On the wind, so mary climb in

It's a town full of losers

And i'm pulling out of here to win.
