Johnny 99 Lyrics - Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band

Well a great black river a man had found 

So he put all his money in a hole in the ground 

And sent a big steel arm drivin' down down down 

Man now I live on the streets of Houston town 

 

Packed up my wife and kids when winter came along 

And we headed down south with just spit and a song 

But they said "Sorry son it's gone gone gone" 

 

Well there's men hunkered down by the railroad tracks 

The Elkhorn Special blowin' my hair back 

Tents pitched on the highway in the dirty moonlight 

And I don't know where I'm gonna sleep tonight 

 

Parked in the lumberyard freezin' our asses off 

My kids in the back seat got a graveyard cough 

Well I'm sleepin' up in front with my wife 

Billy club tappin' on the windshield in the middle of the night 

Says "Move along man move along"
