Whitetown by Bruce Springsteen. From 'The Ties That Bind: The River Collection'. Transcribed by burnmik. Mary Ann on the avenue, girl all dressed up in kinsington blue Down where the hammer falls, she's gonna break within Whitetown walls Each and everything, slowly passes away, she moves along narrow streets From a passing car, she hears the music playin', 'neath the L she starts to sway Down in Whitetown, oh yeah Down in Whitetown, oh yeah Down in Whitetown Johhny's just tryin' to make his way He's got a job, and mister, it don't pay He sits and counts the scars, on a stool at the end of Whitetown bar And the old man here, piss their lives way Drinkin' and joking about the cock fightin' days Ain't no answers here, just the passing fear Spending the rest of their days Down in Whitetown, oh yeah Down in Whitetown, oh yeah Down in Whitetown Bridge/Instrumental Youu, ohhhh oh whoa, Youu, ohhhh oh whoa, Bridge In a dream salvation comes, with a beat All the sound of breaking glass, and muddy feet The beat that echoes down through the street, Mary Anne dances on Down in Whitetown, oh yeah Down in Whitetown Down in Whitetown, oh yeah Down in Whitetown, oh yeah Down in Whitetown, oh yeah Down in Whitetown Youu, ohhhh | | | | | | fade Youu, ohhhh
