Go

Wasn't I always
A friend to you?
Wasn't I always
A friend to you?
Do you wanna
Be my friend?
Ooh, ooh
Do you wanna
Be my friend?
Ooh, ooh

Every once in a while
Honey
Let your love show
Every once in a while
Honey
Let yourself show
Nobody gets hurt
No, no
Ooh, ooh
Nobody gets hurt

Well
We came here as two
We laid down as one
I don't care
If I'm not your only
What I see in you
You see in me
But if I be wrong
Smoke my smoke
Drink my wine
Bury
My snakeskin boots
Somewhere
I'll never find
Still be
Your lover baby

Oo, oo, oo

Wasn't I always
A friend to you?
Wasn't I always
A friend to you?
Do you wanna
Be my friend?
Ooh ooh
Do you wanna
Be my friend?
Ooh, ooh

Every once in a while
Honey
Let yourself go
Every once in a while
Honey
Let yourself show

Nobody gets hurt
No, no
Ooh ooh
Nobody gets hurt

Well
I could be
An astronaut
On the wrong side
Of the moon
Or wrapped up
Like a baby
On a bus under you
Wherever I go
You go with me
But if I do you wrong
Take the master suite
I'll take the floor
Sleep in late
Get some rest
I'll get mine
Still be
Your lover baby

Oo, oo, oo

Wasn't I always
A friend to you?
Wasn't I always
A friend to you?

Every once in a while
Honey
Let your love show
Every once in a while
Honey let yourself
Go
Nobody gets hurt
It's only love
Love, love
Oo, oo, oo

Wasn't I always
A friend to you?
Wasn't I always
A friend to you?
Wasn't I always
A friend to you?
Wasn't I always
A friend to you?

Bruce Springsteen

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.
