Bruce Springsteen – Highway 29 Lyrics  Share

From Bruce Springsteen's album: The Ghost of Tom Joad

I slipped on her shoe, she was a perfect size 7
I said "There^,s no smokin^, in the store ma^,am"
She crossed her legs and then
We made some small talk that^,s where it should have stopped
She slipped me her number, I put it in my pocket
My hand slipped up her skirt, everything slipped my mind
In that little roadhouse
On highway 29
It was a small town bank it was a mess
Well I had a gun you know the rest
Money on the floorboards, shirt was covered in blood
And she was cryin^,, her and me we headed south
On highway 29

In a little desert motel the air was hot and clean
I slept the sleep of the dead, I didn^,t dream
I woke in the morning, washed my face in the sink
[ Highway 29 lyrics from

We headed into the Sierra Madres ^,cross the border line
The winter sun shot thru the black trees
I told myself it was all something in her
But as we drove I knew it was something in me
Something that had been comin^, for a long time
And something that was here with me now
On highway 29

The road was filled with broken glass and gasoline
She wasn^,t sayin^, nothin^,, it was just a dream
The wind was coming silent thru the windshield
All I could see was snow, sky and pines
I closed my eyes and was runnin^,
I was runnin^, then I was flyin^,
