The Promise - Bruce Springsteen (布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀)

Jenny works in a factory

Billy works downtown

Terry works in a rock

And roll band

Looking for

That million dollar sound

I got a job down in Darlington

Some nights I don't go

Some nights I go to the drive-in

Some nights I stay home

I followed that dream

Just like those guys

Do way up on the screen

Drove my Challenger down Route 9

Through the dead ends

And all the bad scenes

The promise was broken

Cashed in a few of my dreams

Well I built

That Challenger by myself

But I needed money

And so I sold it

Lived a secret

I should've kept to myself

But I got drunk

One night and I told it

All my life

I fought that fight

The fight that you can't win

Every day it just gets harder to live

The dream you're believing in

Thunder Road baby

You were so right

Thunder Road

Something dying down

On the highway tonight

Well I won big once

And I hit the coast

Yeah but I paid the cost

Inside I felt like I was

Carrying the broken spirits

Of all the other ones who lost

The promise is broken

You go on living

It steals something

From down in your soul

When the truth is spoken

It don't make no difference

Something in your heart goes cold

I followed that dream through

The southwestern tracks

That dead ends in the two-bit bars

The promise was broken

I was far away from home

Sleeping in the back

Seat of a borrowed car

Thunder Road is for the lost lovers

And all the fixed games

Thunder Road is for the tires

Rushing by in the rain

Thunder Road me

And Billy we'd always sing

Thunder Road

Take it all and

Throw it all away
