Delivery Man - Bruce Springsteen
G
I’m rumblin’ outta town
G
‘Cross the West side tracks
G
Drivin’ my pa’s flat bed
G
With a load-a chickens in the back
C
I’m a little illegal
C
But I ain’t on fire
D
I got them hens tied down
D
With rope and chicken wire
G
Up in the cab me and Wilson
G
We gotta shout
G
Between the noise from the engine
G
And them chickens squawking all about
C
There’s a low bridge
C
comin’ up on 105
D
And if we don’t make it man
D
Them feathers gonna fly, yeah
BREAK: G G G G C C D D
Now Wilson ain’t bad lookin’, ‘cept he’s kinda shy
Told him I got him a girl in rails tonight
Well, she goes by the name of Beverly Jean
She got eyes like a jack rabbit
Starin’ dead in your high
On her bureau
The World Trade Centers glow
When she turns ‘em upside down
Well, they’re covered in snow
All Wilson says is, "I don’t know,
Wayne, I don’t know".
G
I took a hard turn,
G
just South of the Kokomo
G
Our rope gave out, my load shifted
G
We was all over the road
C
Pens bustin’ on the blacktop
C
Chickens scatterin’ all about
G
Runnin’ hellbent ‘cross the highway
G
Gettin’ turned inside out
D
By the local commuters,
D
at sixty miles per hour
G
In five minutes it was all over,
G
except for the flowers
That flatbed was sideways,
in a drainage ditch
There weren’t no way she was movin’,
without a crane and a hitch
When the highway patrol came in,
and set up a road block
We was chasin’ some survivors
‘cross the parkin’ lot
Well I stood up
and checked our situation at hand
Lord don’t let me
spend my life as a delivery man
NOTE:The two groups of verses after te break are not in the Lost Masters take of the song
