Atlantic City (live) Lyrics - Live In Dublin - Bruce Springsteen & The Sessions Band

Well they blew up the chicken man in Philly last 

Night now they blew up his house too 

Down on the boardwalk they're gettin' ready 

For a fight gonna see what them racket boys can do 

Now there's trouble busin' in from outta state 

And the D.A. can't get no relief 

Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade and 

The gamblin' commission's hangin' on by the skin of its teeth 

Everything dies baby that's a fact 

But maybe everything that dies someday comes back 

Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty and 

Meet me tonight in Atlantic City 

Well I got a job and tried to put my money away 

But I got in too deep and I could not pay 

So I drew what I had from the Central Trust 

And I bough us two tickets on that Coast City bus 

Everything dies baby that's a fact 

But maybe everything that dies someday comes back 

Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty and 

Meet me tonight in Atlantic City 

Now our luck may have died and out love may 

Be cold but with you forever I'll stay 

We're goin' out where the sand's turnin' to gold 

So put on your stockin's 'cause the night's getting' cold and maybe everything dies 

That's a fact but maybe everything that dies 

Someday comes back 

Now I been lookin' for a job but it's hard to find 

Down here it's just winners and losers and 

Don't get caught on the wrong side of that line 

Well I'm tired of comin' out on the losin' end 

So honey last night I met this guy and I'm 

Gonna do a little favor for him 

Well I guess everything dies baby that's a fact 

But maybe everything that dies someday 

Comes back 

Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty and 

Meet me tonight in Atlantic City
