Bruce Springsteen - Glory Days 23/5/2009

I had a friend was a big baseball player
back in high school
He could throw that speedball by you
Make you look like a fool boy
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walking in, he was walking out
We went back inside sat down had a few drinks
but all he kept talking about was

Chorus:
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days

Well there's a girl that lives up the block
back in school she could turn all the boy's heads
Sometimes on a Friday I'll stop by
and have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed
Her and her husband Bobby well they split up
I guess it's two years gone by now
We just sit around talking about the old times,
she says when she feels like crying
she starts laughing thinking about

Chorus

Now I think I'm going down to the well tonight
and I'm going to drink till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it
but I probably will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
a little of the glory of, well time slips away
and leaves you with nothing mister but
boring stories of glory days

@gerbo17 there is no such thing as a poor performance of a song by bruce!

[fifkiksLV]

this is one of his best songs

[totoado]

@gerbo17

i sadly agree with you

[gerbo17]

This is one of the worst performances of 'Glory Days' . Bruce is clearly having problems with his voice.

@greenorange75 Haha, for this show, I'm pretty much at the back. Just a little blue Bruce Springsteen shirt halfway up towards the back left corner. Yeah, you can't really see me, but the show was great nevertheless.

[greenorange75]

@bugattibowler Which one were you?

[greenorange75]

0:52 I gotta have more cowbell!

[bugattibowler]

Hey, that's me at 0:05

This show was fantastic! I still can't figure out why this recording loses the band when it gets past the opening guitar though.

[lowspark68]

aaaarrgggh! it doesn't play through to the end!

[dmjc2154]

stevie is great, but his mandolin solo in this song is even better!
