Glory Days Songtext
von Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band

Oh, yeah
Come on
Woah
Huh

I had a friend who was a big baseball player
Back in high school
He could throw that speedball by you
Make you look like a fool, boy

Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walking in, he was walking out
We went back inside, sat down, had a few drinks
But all he kept talking about was

Glory days
Well, they′ll pass you by, glory days
In the wink of a young girl's eye, glory days
Glory days

(Alright)


Well, there′s a girl that lives up the block
Back in school, she could turn all the boy's heads
Sometimes on a Friday I'll stop by and have a few drinks
After she put her kids to bed

Her and her husband Bobby, well, they split up
I guess it′s two years gone by now
We just sit around talking about the old times
She says when she feels like crying
She starts laughing thinking ′bout

Glory days
They'll pass you by, glory days
In the wink of a young girl′s eye, glory days
Glory days

(Alright boys, watch 'em work) rock it now

Think I′m going down to the well tonight
And I'm going to drink ′til I get my fill
And I hope when I get old, I don't sit around thinking about it
But I probably will

Yeah, just sitting back
Trying to recapture a little of the glory of
Well, the time slips away
Leaves you with nothing, mister, but boring stories of


Glory days
They'll pass you by, glory days
In the wink of a young girl′s eye, glory days
Glory days

Well, they′ll pass you by, glory days
In the wink of a young girl's eye, glory days
Glory days

(I′ve got this)
Well alright, ooh yeah
Well alright (alright)
Come on now (oh yeah)
Well alright (alright)
Ooh yeah (oh yeah)
Alright (alright)
Come on now (oh yeah)

Alright boys, keep it rockin' now
Keep on goin′
We're goin′ for home now
Bring it home, yeah
Bring it home, oh oh oh
Alright, well alright
Well alright, well alright
Well alright, well alright
Alright, alright
Let's go
