Bruce Springsteen - When The Lights Go Out lyrics

Well you say you have a friend You trust him with your life You trust him with your car, you trust him with your kids You even trust him with your wife You better watch what's going down when the lights go out When the night is dark, when there ain't nobody looking around When the lights go out Down in this dirty little town Well now the world is dark and funny You better listen to what i say You ain't gonna know what's going on By what you see in the light of day You better watch what's going on when the lights go out When the night is dark, when there ain't nobody looking around When the lights go out Down in this dirty little town Well now baby she trusted billy With reason you understand But billy he kept coming home late at night And in the morning he had that smell on his hand Well now the world is turning Rome is burning Me i'm watching And i'm learning They say it sure is god's hand in the ticking of the clock The lord's light shining under every dirty rock Well now last night i slept right here And i heard god's voice whisper in my ear You better watch what's going on when the lights go out When the night is dark, when there ain't nobody looking around When the lights go out Down in this dirty little town Down in this dirty little town Down in this dirty little town
