but maybe everything that dies someday comes back / put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty


Atlantic City

by Bruce Springsteen

well they blew up the chicken man
in philly last night

and they blew up his house too
down on the boardwalk
they're ready for a fight

gonna see what them racket boys can do

now there's trouble busting in
from out of state

and the d.a. can't get no relief
gonna be a rumble on the promenade
and the gambling commissioner's
hanging on
by the skin of his 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 me a job
and i put my money away

but i got the kind of debts
that no honest man can pay

so i drew out what i had
from the central trust

and i bought 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 our love may be cold
but with you forever i'll stay
we're goin out
where the sands turn into gold

put on your stockings baby
cause the night's getting cold

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 i been looking for a job
but it's so hard to find

down here it's just winners and losers
don't get caught
on the wrong side of that line

i'm tired of comin out on the losin end
well i talked to a man last night
gonna do a little favor for him

well 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
oh meet me tonight in Atlantic City
oh meet me tonight in Atlantic City
