Bruce Springsteen - The Word Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Well you flash your tongue like diamonds
  • You tied me to your wildcat schemes
  • And you forced me into a power dive
  • And left your mark on my jeans
  • And I hear the word on your soldiers
  • And I hear the word on jesus too
  • I heard the word on the country
  • But I never heard the word on you
  • Your love was like a machine gun
  • I wore your bugle in my belt
  • And I was your kid glove lover
  • All the cards were yours
  • You always dealt
  • And I stood before your soapbox
  • Noiseless and shoeless
  • Playing my pantry boys games
  • You had your hands raised up to the sky
  • Shouting oh sunday deity
  • Oh big daddy longlegs
  • Come down and bless your sister please
  • You were shoutin orders about the construction
  • Going on down the highway
  • You were namin names, blamin blames
  • And you blamed me
  • You wore your heart like a challenge
  • Far and apart for anyone who came
  • Open and wide like the river
  • With rocks on both sides to keep the water tame
  • But I heard the word on your high tides
  • And I felt the pain when I tried
  • To rip your flood gates wide
  • And pull your body on over to my side
  • Where we both could hide
  • But you heard about the freedom ride
  • And you heard about the highway crew
  • Who could cut the light a little bit faster than you
  • So you left me just your shoes
  • And I hear the word on jesus
  • And I hear the word on his marching troop
  • And I hear the word on the country
  • But I never heard the word on you
