Does This Bus Stop At 82nd Street? Demo by Bruce Springsteen Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1998

[Verse]
Hey bus driver, keep the change
Bless your children, give them names
Don't trust men who walk with canes
Drink this and in a week, you'll have wings on your feet

Broadway Mary, Joan Fontaine
Advertiser on thedowntown train
Christmas crier bustin' cane
He's in love again

Where dock worker's dreams mix with panther's schemes
To someday own the rodeo
Tainted women in VistaVision
Perform for out-of-state kids at the late show

Wizard imps and sweat sock pimps
Mix with interstellar mongrel nymphs
Rex said that lady left him limp
Wеll, you know love's like that
Mary Lou found out how to cope
Shе rides to heaven on a gyroscope
The Daily News asks her for the dope
And she says, "Man, the dope's that there's still hope"

My queen of diamonds, ace of spades
Newly discovered lovers of the everglades
Take out a full page ad in the trades
To announce their arrival

Senorita, Spanish rose
Wipes her eyes and blows her nose
Uptown in Harlem she throws a rose
To some lucky, young matador
