[Verse 1]
Big black train comin' down the track
Blow your whistle long and long
One minute you're here
Next minute you're gone

[Verse 2]
I lay my penny down on the rails
As the summer wind sings its last song
One minute you're here
Next minute you're gone

[Bridge]
Baby baby baby
I'm so alone
Baby baby baby
I'm coming home

[Verse 3]
Autumn carnival on the edge of town
We walk down the midway arm-in-arm
One minute you're here
Next minute you're gone

[Verse 4]
I thought I knew just who I was
And what I'd do but I was wrong
One minutе you're here
Nеxt minute you're gone

[Bridge]
Red river running along the edge of town
On the muddy banks
I lay my body down
This body down

[Verse 5]
Footsteps cracklin' on a gravel road
Stars vanish in a sky as black as stone
One minute you're here
Next minute you're gone
One minute you're here
Next minute you're gone
One minute you're here

Bruce Springsteen is a rock ‘n’ roll icon from the great state of New Jersey. Nicknamed “The Boss,” he’s known for spirited sax-powered anthems about working-class people making their way in the world. Backed by the trusty E Street Band, he’s sold more than 120 million records, won numerous awards (including 20 Grammys and an Oscar), sold out stadiums around the globe, and earned a place alongside his teenage heroes in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Although he’s a living legend who ranks among the most important artists in rock history, Springsteen wasn’t an overnight success. Around the time of his first album, 1973’s Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J., he was dismissed as just another “new Dylan"—some scruffy folk singer with a decent vocabulary looking to follow in Bob’s footsteps. In the decade that followed, Springsteen proved himself to be much more.

His breakthrough came with his third album, 1975’s Born to Run. The record hit No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and landed the singer-songwriter on the cover of both Time and Newsweek. Bruce nabbed his first chart-topping album five years later with The River, and in 1984, he went global with Born in the U.S.A., a critical and commercial smash that produced seven Top 10 singles.
