Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen

The screen door slams

Mary's dress 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 (1)________ can't (2)________ myself alone again

Don't run (3)________ inside

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

So you're scared and you're thinking

That maybe we ain't that young anymore

Show a little faith, there's magic in the night

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

Oh and that's alright with me



You can hide `neath your covers

And study (5)________ pain

Make crosses from your lovers

Throw (6)__________ in the rain

Waste your summer praying in vain

For a savior 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 else can we do now?

Except roll down the window

And let the wind blow

Back (7)________ hair

Well the night's busting open

These two lanes will (8)________ us anywhere

We got one last chance to make it real

To (9)__________ in these wings on some wheels

Climb in back

Heaven's (10)______________ on down the tracks

Oh-oh come take my hand

Riding out tonight to case the promised land

Oh-oh thunder road, oh (11)______________ (12)________ oh thunder road

Lying out (13)__________ like a killer in the sun

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

Oh thunder road, sit (14)__________ take 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 (15)________ (16)________ walk

From your front porch to my front seat

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

And i (17)________ you're lonely

For words that i ain't spoken

But tonight we'll be free

All the promises'll be broken

There (18)________ ghosts in the eyes

Of all the boys you (19)________ away

They haunt this dusty beach road

In the skeleton frames of burned out chevrolets



They scream your name at night in the street

Your (20)____________________ gown lies in rags at their feet

And in the lonely cool (21)____________ dawn

You (22)________ (23)__________ engines roaring on

But when you get to the porch they're gone

On the wind, so mary (24)__________ in

It's a town full of losers

And i'm pulling out of (25)________ to win.
