Lyrics:
I had a job, I had a girl
I had something going, mister, in this world
I got laid off down at the lumber yard
Our love went bad, times got hard
Now I work down at the car wash
Where all it ever does is rain
Don't you feel like you're a rider on a downbound train
She just said, "Joe, I gotta go
We had it once, we ain't got it anymore"
She packed her bags, left me behind
She bought a ticket on the Central Line
Nights as I sleep, I hear that whistle whining
I feel her kiss in the misty rain
And I feel like I'm a rider on a downbound train
Last night I heard your voice
You were crying, crying, you were so alone
You said your love had never died
You were waiting for me at home
Put on my jacket, I ran through the woods
I ran till I thought my chest would explode
There in the clearing, beyond the highway
In the moonlight, our wedding house shone
I rushed through the yard
I burst through the front door, my head pounding hard
Up the stairs I climbed
The room was dark, our bed was empty
Then I heard that long whistle whine
And I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried
Now I swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gang
Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain
Now, don't it feel like you're a rider on a downbound train

Don’t you love watching Max? At the interlude, he’s quiet and still, yet honed-in; laser focused on Bruce’s every move. Adjusts his glasses, re-fashions his grip, readying for his return. Nails the big thump on his re-entry. It’s a close up of a true professional at work and I love watching it.

Such a classic tune. Hell I'm 71,makes me feel like I'm 40. How bout them apples !

My favorite song of the boss. Probably underestimated by the fans. Masterpiece.

I’m 83 and I’ve loved Bruce Springsteen since I can remember and he’s the best live performer I’ve ever seen and that includes Elvis Presley, Eddie Cochran, Bill Haley, Tom Jones, Paul Rodgers and Jerry Lee Lewis at their best. He tops them all.

This is by far my favorite from Springsteen. I’m a 61 year old man who weeps every time I hear it. It rings clear to me. God bless you Bruce!

The pain, the hope, the disappointment. This song says it all

This song is special, and should be reserved for late in the show, for the dark, when things are desperate and exhausted and still a little hopeless. I have lived this song, and its not spoken of lightly.

"Now I work down at the carwash, where all it ever does is rain".......Love it.

Just such an amazing song and performer. I saw him in 1985 at Wembley Stadium for 3 plus hours. Thank you, Bruce and your band, you have brought so much happiness to so many of us.

I believe all of Bruce Springsteen's fan have a favorite song by him. A song that talks to them on a personal level. For me this is that song, it goes back decades ago when my wife and I were having problems and I thought the end was more likely than not!! This song meant a lot to me then and even now reminds me of how fragile love can be!!
