Songtexte Darlington County - Bruce Springsteen

Driving in to Darlington County
Me and Wayne on the Fourth of July
Driving in to Darlington County
Looking for some work on the county line

We drove down from New York City
Where the girls are pretty but they just wanna know your name
Driving in to Darlington City
Got a union connection with an uncle of Wayne's

We drove 800 miles without seeing a cop
We got rock 'n' roll music blasting off the T-top

Singing sha la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la

Hey little girl, standing on the corner
Today's your lucky day for sure, all right
Me and my buddy, we're from New York City
We got 200 dollars, we wanna rock all night

Girl, you're looking at two big spenders
The world don't know what me and Wayne might do
Our pa's each own one of the World Trade Centers
For a kiss and a smile, I'll give mine all to you

Come on baby, take a seat on my fender
It's a long night, tell me what else were you gonna do?
Just me and you

We could sha la la, sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la

Little girl, sitting in the window
Ain't seen my buddy in seven days
County man tells me the same thing
He don't work and he don't get paid

Little girl, you're so young and pretty
Walk with me and you can have your way
And we'll leave this Darlington City
For a ride down that Dixie Highway

Driving out of Darlington County
Eyes seen the glory of the coming of the Lord
Driving out of Darlington County
Seen Wayne handcuffed to the bumper of a state trooper's Ford

Sha la la, la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la (c'mon)
Sha la la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la

Sha la la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la, la la la la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
