Badlands Lyrics by Bruce Springsteen

Badlands Lyrics


    lights out tonight, trouble in the heartland.
    Got a head-on collision, smashin' in my guts man.
    I'm caught in a crossfire that i don't understand.
    But there's one thing i know for sure girl:
    I don't give a damn for the same old played out scenes
    I don't give a damn for just the in-betweens.
    Honey i want the heart, i want the soul, i want control right now.
    You better listen to me baby:
    Talk about a dream; try to make it real.
    You wake up in the night with a fear so real.
    You spend your life waiting for a moment that just don't come.
    Well don't waste your time waiting

    Badlands you gotta live it every day
    Let the broken hearts stand
    As the price you've gotta pay
    We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
    And these badlands start treating us good

    Workin' in the field till you get your back burned
    Workin' `neath the wheels till you get your facts learned.
    Baby i got my facts learned real good right now.
    You better get it straight darling:
    Poor men wanna be rich, rich men wanna be kings,
    And a king ain't satisfied till he rules everything.
    I wanna go out tonight, i wanna find out what i got.
    Now i believe in the love that you gave me.
    I believe in the faith that could save me.
    I believe in the hope and i pray that some day it
    Will raise me above these

    Badlands...

    For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside
    That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive.
    I wanna find one face that ain't looking through me
    I wanna find one place, i wanna spit in the face of these

    Badlands...
