    Lyrics:
    On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert
    I pick up my money and head back into town
    Driving 'cross the Waynesboro county line
    I got the radio on and I'm just killing time
    Working all day in my daddy's garage
    Driving all night chasing some mirage
    Pretty soon little girl I'm gonna take charge
    The dogs on Main Street howl
    'Cause they understand
    If I could take one moment into my hands
    Mister I ain't a boy, no, I'm a man
    And I believe in a promised land
    I've done my best to live the right way
    I get up every morning and go to work each day
    But your eyes go blind and your blood runs cold
    Sometimes I feel so weak I just want to explode
    Explode and tear this whole town apart
    Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart
    Find somebody itching for something to start
    The dogs on Main Street howl
    'Cause they understand
    If I could wrench one moment into my hands
    Mister I ain't a boy, no, I'm a man
    And I believe in a promised land
    Well there's a dark cloud rising from the desert floor
    I packed my bags and I'm heading straight into the storm
    Gonna be a twister to blow everything down
    That ain't got the faith to stand its ground
    Blow away the dreams that tear you apart
    Blow away the dreams that break your heart
    Blow away the lies that leave you nothing but lost and brokenhearted
    The dogs on Main Street howl
    'Cause they understand
    If I could take one moment into my hands
    Mister I ain't a boy, no I'm a man
    And I believe in a promised land
    And I believe in a promised land
    And I believe in a promised land

      Do you rember the word sheet that came with Darkness? That was one of the first albums I ever bought, i was 12 in 1978, i bought only 45s before that. My buddy borrowed the album and "lost" lol the word sheet.

      Agree! Probably my favorite Bruce tune. I have listened to no tune more than this one over the years and it still has not gotten old. The sax solo on this one just floors me; love it!

    What a great opener this would be! Conversely, one man can't pour his heart and soul and body into one song. For a whole concert? That would be inhuman. But Bruce is the closest I've seen to this.

    The Promised Land
    /
    On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert
    I pick up my money and head back into town
    Driving 'cross the Waynesboro county line
    I got the radio on and I'm just killing time
    Working all day in my daddy's garage
    Driving all night chasing some mirage
    Pretty soon little girl I'm gonna take charge
    The dogs on Main Street howl

    If I could take one moment into my hands
    Mister I ain't a boy, no, I'm a man

    I reached into the box of Boss Bruce's contributions and pulled out this song, where even then you can see that he was very well prepared for this single, admiration not only for him, but also for his whole band, which is precisely played, and I'm not talking about today's concerts, for example from . 2012 when the concerts take people's breath away and the night shift takes their hearts...✉🖋
