On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert
I pick up my money and head back into town
Driving 'cross the Waynesboro county line
I got the radio on and I'm just killing time

    On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert I pick up my money and head back into town. Driving cross the Waynesboro county line I got the radio on, and I'm just killing time working all day in my daddy's garage, driving all night, chasing some mirage. Pretty soon, little girl, I'm gonna take charge.

    i don't think there is a rhyme that better encapsulates Springsteen than "mirage/garage"

    Springsteen's "Darkness On The Edge Of Town" DVD to feature session footage During Steve Van Zandt's Q&A session on Thursday night (February 11th) at Manhattan's 92nd Street Y, he shocked longtime E Street Band fans when he revealed that the video portion to Bruce Springsteen's Darkness On The Edge Of Town box set will have footage from the original album sessions. Until now, it was believed that the DVD would only feature live performances and newly-filmed interview segments. www.thelightinDarkness.com

    To. BruceNY your narrative could not be improved upon. So I will simply say that I concur.

    My favourite line is Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart – like you would cut a bruise off of a peach. Amazing poetic image.
