HELD UP WITHOUT A GUN(LIVE)

Lyrics By Bruce Springsteen

I was out driving just a taking it slow

Looked at my tank it was reading low

Pulled in a Exxon station out on Highway One

Held up without a gun, held up without a gun

Some damn fool with a guitar

walkin' down the street

ain't got nowhere to go

Ain't got nothing to eat

Man with a cigar says, "Sign here son"

Held up without a gun, held up without a gun

Now it's a sin and it oughta be a crime

You know it happens buddy all the time

Try to make a living, try to have a little fun

Held up without a gun, held up without a gun
