Bruce Springsteen - Loose Change lyrics

Met her at a friendly little bar down along the coast

She said it was her birthday so we had us a nice little toast

Drove around for a while, smoked a few cigarettes

Took her back to my place, she slipped off her party dress

She sat for a while on the edge of the bed just talkin'

Loose change in my pocket

Loose change in my pocket

Pint of gin in my boot cuff, I'm drivin' for a drink and a dance

Sittin' on the next stool, miss a little time on her hands

Yeah I knew she was trouble, but trouble sure was lookin' fine

And when I pulled her close what I knew kinda slipped my mind

We lay in bed and watched the moon come up crawling

Loose change in my pocket

Loose change in my pocket

I pour another drink, wait for the night to get through

Stars are burning in that black void so far away and blue

Now I'm sittin' at a red light I feel somethin' tickin' way down

The night's moving like a slow train crawling through this shithole town

Got my bags packed in the back and I'm tryin' to get going again

But red just goes to green and green goes red and then

Then all I hear's the clock on the dash tick-tocking

Loose change in my pocket
