A LOVE SO FINE

Live 29 Oct 1974 version


One, two, three!

There're sparkling angels out on your fire escape
They lie to your mama for you, trying to keep you safe
With them fire alley virgins on a midnight vamp
You lost your heart on Main Street to a beautiful tramp
You lost your mind
Yeah she looks fine
You're in a love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)

The rat trap's filled with soul crusaders
They're all bopping and popping and jumping to Little Melvin and The Invaders
You're out on the floor and can't get up
Ladies out there dancing that Continental Strut
She looks so good
She looks so fine
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
All right, it's all right

Everybody's reeling when the band hits the ceiling
Don't you know you just wanna go
The joint starts rocking, your knees start knocking
Everybody wanna go

Let's go!

Bar's closed down, it's time to go home
You walk to the dirty side of town all alone
Papa's chewing your ear off, he wants some cash
Mama's screaming at you about hanging out with trash
But you don't mind
Tell her that you don't mind
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)

Oh yeah
Alright now
Alright now
Alright now
Alright now
Bring the band down!

Are you ???
Are you ???
Are you ???
Are you ???

Yeah yeah-yeah (yeah yeah-yeah)
Yeah yeah-yeah (yeah yeah-yeah)
La la la-la-la la (la la la-la-la la)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Whoa whoa whoa whoa)
Yeah-yeah yeah-yeah (yeah-yeah yeah-yeah)
Yeah-yeah yeah-yeah (yeah-yeah yeah-yeah)
La-la-la la-la-la (la-la-la la-la-la)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Whoa whoa whoa whoa)
La-la-la la-la-la (la-la-la la-la-la)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Whoa whoa whoa whoa)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Whoa whoa whoa whoa)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Whoa whoa whoa whoa)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Whoa whoa whoa whoa)
All night, all night
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright

Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright

Du du du du du (du du du du du)
(Du du du du du, du du du du du)
(Du du du du du, du du du du du)
(Du du du du du)

That's alright
Hope you don't mind
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)
A love so fine (a love so fine)

Whoa!

[Spoken outro:] Thank you, we love you. Thank you so much. Thank you. The E Street band. Thank you.
