Testo Downbound Train - Bruce Springsteen
Testo della canzone Downbound Train (Bruce Springsteen), tratta dall'album Nebraska '82: Expanded Edition
I had a job, I had a girl
I had something going, mister, in this world
I got laid off down at the auto yard
Our love went bad, times got hard
Well, now I work down at the car wash
Where all it ever does is rain
Sometimes, don't you feel like you're a rider
Ooh baby, on a downbound train?
She just said, "Joe, I gotta go
We had it once, we ain't got it anymore"
She packed her bags, left me behind
She bought a ticket on the Central Line
Nights as I sleep, I still hear the whistle whining
I feel her soft kiss in the misty morning rain
Sometimes, don't you feel like you're a rider
Ooh baby, on a downbound train?
Last night, I heard your voice
You were crying, crying that you were so alone
You said your love had never died
And you were waiting for me at home
Well, I put on my jacket, I ran through the woods
I ran 'til I thought my chest would explode
There in a clearing beyond the highway
There in the moonlight, our wedding house shone
I rushed through the yard, I burst through the front door
My head pounding hard, up the stairs I climbed
The room was dark, our bed was empty
And then I heard that long whistle whine
And then I dropped to my knees
Hung my head and cried
Now I swing a sledgehammer on a railroad gang
Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain
Sometimes, don't you feel like you're a rider
Ooh baby, on a downbound train?
Ooh baby, on a downbound train
Ooh baby, on a downbound train
