lirik lagu bruce springsteen - shut out the light (la garage sessions '83)
[verse 1]
the runway rushed up at him
as he felt the wheels touch down
he stood out on the blacktop
and took a taxi into town
he got off out down on main street
and went into a local bar
he bought a drink and found a seat
in a corner in the dark
[verse 2]
well, she called up her mama
to make sure the kids were out of the house
she checked herself out in the dining room mirror
and undid an extra b~tton on her blouse
he felt her lying next to him
and the clock said 4:00 am
he was staring at the ceiling
he couldn’t move his hands
[chorus]
oh, mama, mama, mama, come quick
i’ve got the shakes and i’m gonna be sick
throw your arms around me in the cold dark night
hey now, mama, don’t shut out the light
don’t you shut out the light, don’t you shut out the light
don’t you shut out the light, don’t you shut out the light
[verse 3]
well, on his porch, they stretched a banner
that said “johnny, welcome home”
bobby pulled his ford out of the garage
and they polished up the chrome
his mama said “johnny, oh, johnny
i’m so glad to have you back with me”
his pa said he was sure they’d give him his job back
down at the factory
[verse 4]
now every evening
well, just after supper time
he’d go into the back bedroom
and he’d lock the door behind
he’d like awake ’til the morning light
stretched out across the chair
just him and a few bad habits
he’d brought back from over there
[chorus]
oh, mama, mama, mama, come quick
i’ve got the shakes and i’m gonna be sick
throw your arms around me in the cold dark night
hey now, mama, don’t shut out the light
don’t you shut out the light, don’t you shut out the light
don’t you shut out the light, don’t you shut out the light
[verse 5]
well, deep in the dark forest
a forest filled with rain
beyond a stretch of maryland pines
there’s a river without a name
in the cold black water
now johnson lanier stands
he stares across the lights of the city
and dreams of where he’s been
[verse 6]
and a gray moon disappears
beyond that town hillside
stars rise, grow brighter, then gone, gone, gone
in a black and endless sky
like the others before him
he’d gone and done his best
now he watches the water of that nameless river
rise above his chest
[chorus]
oh, mama, mama, mama, come quick
i’ve got the shakes and i’m gonna be sick
throw your arms around me in the cold dark night
hey now, mama, don’t shut out the light
don’t you shut out the light, don’t you shut out the light
don’t you shut out the light, don’t you shut out the light
don’t you shut out the light, don’t you shut out the light
