Bruce Springsteen

Featuring: The E Street Band

Get outta that bed, wash your face and hands
Get outta that bed, wash your face and hands
Well you get in that kitchen, make some noise with the pots and pans

Way you wear those dresses, the sun comes shining through
Way you wear those dresses, the sun comes shining through
I can't believe my eyes, all that mess belongs to you

I believe to my soul you're the devil and now I know
I believe to my soul you're the devil and now I know
Well the more I work, the faster my money goes

I said shake, rattle and roll, shake, rattle and roll
Shake, rattle and roll, shake, rattle and roll
Well you won't do right to save your doggone soul

Yeah, blow Joe

I'm like a one-eyed cat peeping in a seafood store
I'm like a one-eyed cat peeping in a seafood store
Well I can look at you till you ain't no child no more

Ah shake, rattle and roll, shake, rattle and roll
Shake, rattle and roll, shake, rattle and roll
Well you won't do right to save your doggone soul

I get over the hill and way down underneath
I get over the hill and way down underneath
You make me roll my eyes, even make me grit my teeth

I said shake, rattle and roll, shake, rattle and roll
Shake, rattle and roll, shake, rattle and roll
Well you won't do nothing to save your doggone soul

Shake, rattle and roll

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.
