Adam Raised a Cain (Live at Berkeley Community Theatre, Berkeley, CA - July 1, 1978) Bruce Springsteen
[Intro]
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Summer I was baptized
My father held me to his side
As they put me to the water
He said how on that day I cried
We were prisoners of love, a love in chains
He was standin' in the door, I was standin' in the rain
With the same hot blood burning in our veins
[Chorus]
Raised a Cain (Yeah)
Raised a Cain (Yeah)
Raised a Cain (Yeah)
Raised a Cain (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
All of the old faces
Ask you why you're back
They fit you with position
And the keys to your daddy's Cadillac
In the darkness of your room
Your mother calls you by your true name
You remember the faces, the places, the names
You know it's never over, it's relentless as the rain
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Summer I was baptized
My father held me to his side
As they put me to the water
He said how on that day I cried
We were prisoners of love, a love in chains
He was standin' in the door, I was standin' in the rain
With the same hot blood burning in our veins
[Chorus]
Raised a Cain (Yeah)
Raised a Cain (Yeah)
Raised a Cain (Yeah)
Raised a Cain (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
All of the old faces
Ask you why you're back
They fit you with position
And the keys to your daddy's Cadillac
In the darkness of your room
Your mother calls you by your true name
You remember the faces, the places, the names
You know it's never over, it's relentless as the rain
