| Lyrics：Bruce Springsteen Music：Bruce Springsteen | |
| 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 | |
| (Chorus) | |
| 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 | |
| (Chorus) | |
| 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 | |
| (Chorus) | |
| I believe in a promised land... |
