[Verse 1]
Cold rain running down the front of my shirt
I'm flat on my back, the wheels in the dirt
Angel makes her face up out on Baker Street
She's straddling the shifter in my front seat
There's nothing to lose, it's a heartbreak
The deck's stacked
So put your foot to the floor
And darling, don't look back

[Verse 2]
We're making night tracks through the blazing rain
Blowin' pistons, workin' the fast lane
Red line burnin', pockets full of cash
Angel writes her name in lipstick on my dash
There's nothing to lose, it's a bad break
But baby, we're backed
Tonight we'll blow off the doors
And honey, we won't look back

[Bridge]
We held it in our hearts in the pourin' rain
We made it through the heart of a hurricane
We tore it apart and put it together again

[Verse 3]
Well angel, won't you believe in love for me?
Come on and meet me tonight, darling, out in the street
We'll move with the city in the dark
You got to walk it, talk it, in your heart
There's nothin' to lose, it's a heartache
The deck's stacked
So put your foot to the floor, darling
Tonight we'll blow off the doors, baby
We're gonna even the score
And honey, we won't look back

[Outro]
Don't look back
Baby, don't look back
Baby, don't look back
No no no no
Baby, don't look
Don't look
Don't look
Don't look
Don't look
Back

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.
