Bruce Springsteen - Where The Bands Are lyrics

I hear the guitars ringin' out

Ringin' out down Union Street

I hear the lead singer shoutin' out, girl

I wanna be a slave to the beat

Yeah, tonight I wanna break my chains

Somebody break my heart

Somebody shake my brains

Downtown there's something that I wanna hear

There's a sound, little girl, keeps ringing in my ear

CHORUS

I wanna be where the bands are

I wanna be where the bands are

Where the bands are

I wanna be where the bands are

I get off from work and I grab something to eat

I turn the corner and I drive down your street

Little gray houses darling looks like nowhere

But hey I know you're hiding in there

Come on out for just a little while

You know that heart of stone, girl, it just ain't your style

Tonight I wanna feel the beat of the crowd

And when I tell you that I love you

I wanna have to shout it out loud

Shout it out loud

CHORUS

I hear the guitars ringin' out again

Ringin' on down Union Street

I hear the lead singer shoutin' out girl

I wanna be a slave to the beat

And I want something that'll break my chains

Something to break my heart

Something to shake my brains

There's a rocker's special on tonight

So meet me on down

'Neath the neon lights

CHORUS
