Bruce Springsteen – The Wrestler: Lyrics and Music Video
The Wrestler Lyrics
Have you ever seen a one trick pony in the field so happy and free
If you’ve ever seen a one trick pony then you’ve seen me
Have you ever seen a one legged dog makin’ his way down the street
If you’ve ever seen a one legged dog then you’ve seen me
(then you’ve seen me) i come and stand at every door
(then you’ve seen me) i always leave with less than i had before
(then you’ve seen me) but i can make you smile when the blood it hits the floor
Tell me friend can you ask for anything more
Tell me can you ask for anything more
Have you ever seen a scarecrow filled with nothing but dust and weeds
If you’ve ever seen that scarecrow then you’ve seen me
Have you ever seen a one armed man punchin’ at nothing but the breeze
If you’ve ever seen a one armed man then you’ve seen me
(then you’ve seen me) i come and stand at every door
(then you’ve seen me) i always leave with less than i had before
(then you’ve seen me) but i can make you smile when the blood it hits the floor
Tell me friend can you ask for anything more
Tell me can you ask for anything more
These thigns that have comforted me i drive away (anything more)
This place that is my home i cannot stay (anything more)
My only faith is in the broken bones and bruises i display
Have you ever seen a one legged man tryin’ to dance his way free
If you’ve ever seen a one legged man then you’ve seen me

Badlands
Lights out tonight, trouble in the heartland Got a head-on collision smashin’ in my guts, man I’m caught in a cross fire that i don’t understand But there’s one thing i know for sure girl I don’t…

57 Channels (and Nothin’ On)
I bought a bourgeois house in the hollywood hills With a trunkload of hundred thousand dollar bills Man came by to hook up my cable tv We settled in for the night my baby and me We switched ’round…
