Live 20 Oct 1995 version
Well your mama didn't like me, so we just ran away
We got a little apartment in a hotel down in Brownsville Way
I used to sit in the kitchen, play guitar when night turned to day
We always thought we had something no one could ever take away
Oh but the time run out and the payment's due
Well there'll never be enough time to forget about you
Well there'll never be enough time to forget about you
Whoa!
We used to lie in bed all day, plot our destination
And talk about why you liked the miracles and I dug the temptations
But all those good times that we had just turned into frustration
When we made our final move, well there is no hesitation
Because the time run out and the payment's due
There will never be enough time to forget about you
Well there'll never be enough time to forget about you
Whoa!
Never be enough time
Well the time run out and the payment's due
Well there'll never be enough time to forget about you
Well there'll never be enough time to forget about you
Never be enough time to forget about you
Never be enough time to forget about you
Never be enough time to forget about you
Never be enough time to forget about you
Never be enough time
Never be enough, be enough time
Never be enough, never be enough
Never be enough time, be enough time
Never be enough, never be enough
Never be enough time, be enough time
Never be enough, never be enough
Never be enough time, time
Hey!
The above lyrics are for the live 20 Oct 1995 performance of NEVER BE ENOUGH TIME at Nick's Fat City in Pittsburgh, PA, during Joe Grushecky & The Houserockers' October Assault Tour. Bruce Springsteen plays guitar and sings backup vocals on this song.
In October 1995, Joe Grushecky & The Houserockers kicked off the release of their American Babylon album with a six-stop tour dubbed the "October Assault." Introduced as "honorary Houserocker of the week" on the first night, Bruce Springsteen joined the band for the majority of the set on all six dates, playing guitar and sharing vocals with Grushecky. At each show, Springsteen came out for American Babylon's WHAT DID YOU DO IN THE WAR and remained on stage for the remainder of the set. The fourth date of the mini-tour (20 Oct 1995 in Pittsburgh, PA) was broadcast on radio. Eight songs from the fourth date and two songs from the fifth date (21 Oct 1995 in Pittsburgh, PA) were officially released.
This live 20 Oct 1995 version of NEVER BE ENOUGH TIME appears on two official releases.
Info about the October Assault Tour is taken from Backstreets magazine issue #50/51.
