Bruce Springsteen - Take Em as They Come lyrics

Last night I dreamed we were runnin' through the outlands Tears streamin' your pretty face all a wreck Got ya' daddy's gun in your tremblin' hands Down the highway another stranger comes You gotta take em baby when they come Little girl put on your best dress Cause we're goin' out on the town tonight Better bring along your switchblades, 'Cause for sure some fools gonna wanna fight You gotta take em baby as they come You gotta take em Take em as they come girl Take em as they come girl Take em as they come girl Take em baby as they come God save the rider in the black night Save the man who taught that it was right To do what they have dreamt of So we come what we have become You gotta take em baby when they come Little girl gone are birthdays Faded away into the clear blue night And all the promises we made Lie shattered and broken in the morning light You gotta take em baby when they come You gotta take em Take em as they come girl Take em as they come girl Take em as they come girl Take em baby as they come I know your heart is breakin' I can feel it too girl Though my finger on the trigger is shakin' There's just one thing you could do girl There's winners and losers All the same from the other side But we could choose here girl We could try, couldn't we hon To take em baby when they come Take em as they come girl Take em as they come girl Take em as they come girl Take em baby as they come Take em as they come girl Take em as they come girl Take em as they come girl Take em baby as they come Take em baby as they come Take em baby as they come Take em baby as they come Take em baby as they come
