TOWN CALLED HEARTBREAK

Live 06 Oct 2007 version



Patti Scialfa:They say love
A love has its very own light
That can shine through the darkest night
That we've heard of
Bruce Springsteen:And that light
That you may want so much
Ah, maybe you can never touch
Though you may try
Both:Now at night I dream
I'm all alone
Big sledgehammer and a cold dark stone
Man swing the hammer
World begin to shake
Patti Scialfa:I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak
Bruce Springsteen:I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak

Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:Oh, with me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby, gotta work with me baby

Patti Scialfa:She says "here, man, (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
I've given you my flesh and blood (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
That just wasn't good enough (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
You wanted my soul" (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
Bruce Springsteen:He says "girl, (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
No matter how hard I try (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
You ain't ever satisfied (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
No no no" (oh na na na, na oh na na na) (no, no, no)
Both:Now at night the same dream
I'm all alone
Big sledgehammer and a cold dark stone
Man swing the hammer
World begin to shake
Patti Scialfa:I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak
Bruce Springsteen:I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak
Patti Scialfa:I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak
Bruce Springsteen:I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak

Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:Oh, with me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby
Bruce Springsteen:You gotta work
Patti Scialfa:With me baby, gotta work with me baby
(Oh na na na, na oh na na na)
(Oh na na na, na oh na na na)
(Oooh)
I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
Bruce Springsteen:I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
Patti Scialfa:I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak (oh na na na, na oh na na na)
