Bruce Springsteen - Highway Patrolman
My name is Joe Roberts I work for the stateI'm a sergeant out of Perrineville barracks number 8I always done an honest job as honest as I couldI got a brother named Franky and Franky ain't no goodNow ever since we was young kids it's been the same come downI get a call over the radio Franky's in trouble downtownWell if it was any other man, I'd put him straight awayBut when it's your brother sometimes you look the other wayMe and Franky laughin' and drinkin' nothin' feels better than blood on bloodTakin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band played "Night of the JohnstownFlood"I catch him when he's strayin' like any brother wouldMan turns his back on his family well he just ain't no goodWell Franky went in the army back in 1965 I got a farm deferment, settled down,took Maria for my wifeBut them wheat prices kept on droppin' till it was like we were gettin' robbedFranky came home in '68, and me, I took this jobYea we're laughin' and drinkin' nothin' feels better than blood on bloodTakin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band played "Night of the JohnstownFlood"I catch him when he's strayin', teach him how to walk that lineMan turns his back on his family he ain't no friend of mineWell the night was like any other, I got a call 'bout quarter to nineThere was trouble in a roadhouse out on the Michigan lineThere was a kid lyin' on the floor lookin' bad bleedin' hard from his head therewas a girl cryin' at a table and it was Frank, they saidWell I went out and I jumped in my car and I hit the lightsWell I must of done one hundred and ten through Michigan county that nightIt was out at the crossroads, down round Willow bankSeen a Buick with Ohio plates behind the wheel was FrankWell I chased him through them county roads till a sign said Canadian borderfive miles from hereI pulled over the side of the highway and watched his taillights disappearMe and Franky laughin' and drinkin'Nothin' feels better than blood on bloodTakin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band played "Night of the JohnstownFlood"I catch him when he's strayin' like any brother would
