Thunder Road Lyrics - Counting Crows

(Original by Bruce Springsteen) 

(done as an alternate in Rain King) 

The screen door slams 

Mary's dress waves 

Like a vision she dances across the porch 

as the radio plays 

Roy Orbison singing for the lonely 

Hey that's me and I want you only 

Don't turn me home again 

I just can't face myself alone again 

Don't run back inside 

darling you know just what I'm here for 

So you're scared and you're thinking 

That maybe we ain't that young anymore 

Show a little faith, there's magic in the night 

You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright 

Oh and that's alright with me 

Oh oh come take my hand 

Driving out tonight to case the promised land 

Oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road 

oh Thunder Road 

Show a little faith, there's magic in the night 

You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright 

Oh and that's alright with me
