Take Em as They Come — текст песни (Bruce Springsteen)

Last night I dreamed he was runnin through the avalanche

Tears streamed your pretty face all burned red

Once your dead its done and not much remains

Down the highway another stranger comes

You gotta take em baby when they come



Little girl put on your red dress

Cause were goin out on the town tonight

And when I hold this switchblade

Lets be sure some fools gonna want to fight



You gotta take em baby as they come

You gotta take em

Take em as they come girl

Take em as they come girl

Take em as they come girl

Take em baby as they come



God save the rider in the black night

Save the man who taught that it was right

To do what they have dreamt of

So we come what we have become

You gotta take em baby when they come



Little girl gone are birthdays

Faded away into the clear blue night

And all the promises we made

Lie shattered and broken in the morning light



You gotta take em baby when they come

You gotta take em

Take em as they come girl

Take em as they come girl

Take em as they come girl

Take em baby as they come



I know your heart is breakin

I can feel it too girl

Though my finger on the trigger is shakin

Theres just one thing you could do girl



Theres winners and losers

All the same from the other side

But we could choose here girl

We could try, couldnt we hon

To take em baby when they come



Take em as they come girl

Take em as they come girl

Take em as they come girl

Take em baby as they come



Take em as they come girl

Take em as they come girl

Take em as they come girl

Take em baby as they come

Take em baby as they come

Take em baby as they come

Take em baby as they come

Take em baby as they come
