Iceman — текст песни (Bruce Springsteen)

Sleepy town aint got the guts to budge

Baby, this emptiness has already been judged

I wanna go out tonight, I wanna find out what I got



Youre a strange part of me, youre a preachers girl

And I dont want no piece of this mechanical world

Got my arms open wide and my blood is runnin hot



Well take the midnight road right to the devils door

And even the white angels of eden with their flamin swords

Wont be able to stop us from hittin town in this dirty old ford



Well it dont take no nerve when you got nothin to guard

I got tombstones in my eyes and Im runnin real hard

My baby was a lover and the world just blew her away



Once they tried to steal my heart, beat it right outta my head

But baby they didnt know that I was born dead

I am the iceman, fightin for the right to live

I say better than the glory roads of heaven, better off ridin

Hellbound in the dirt, better than the bright lines of the freeway

Better than the shadows of your daddys church

Better than the waiting, baby better off is the search
