[intro to 'Straight Time'] Songtext
von Bruce Springsteen

This is where I get my little sweet shot
A lot of the–, most of the music tonight was composed using a lot of silence
Spaces in between what′s going on
An essential part of the music that I've written
And I need your collaboration with me tonight
And your cooperation so I can give my best to you


About a fellow that gets out of prison
And trying to find his way back into his family
And trying to find his way back into the world
And I think changing your old behavior
That′s a hard thing to do
It's a hard thing for anybody to do
Your old habits and the way you
The way you've done things always feel like your old friends
And they feel how you define yourself

So what do you do when the worst in you feels like hope?
It′s called Straight To You
