Racing in the Street Bruce Springsteen

[Verse 1]
I got a '69 Chevy with a three-ninety-six
Fuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor
She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot
Outside the 7-Eleven store

Me and my partner Sonny built her straight out of scratch
And he rides with me from town to town
We only run for the money, got no strings attached
We shut 'em up and then we shut 'em down

[Chorus]
Tonight, tonight the strip's just right
I wanna blow 'em off in my first heat
Summer's here and the time is right
For racin' in the street

[Verse 2]
We take all the action we can meet
And we cover all the northeast states
When the strip shuts down, we run 'em in the street
From the fire roads to the interstate

Now, some guys, they just give up livin'
And start dying little by little, piece by piece
Some guys come home from work and wash up
Then go racin' in the street
