Rosalita (Come Out Tonight) [Hammersmith Odeon, London ’75]

Bruce Springsteen

[Intro]
Just a little café
On the other side of the border
She was sitting there, giving me looks

[Verse 1]
Spread out now, Rosie, doctor, come cut loose her mama's reins
You know playin' blind man's bluff is a little baby's game
You pick up Little Dynamite, I'm gonna pick up Little Gun
Together we're gonna go out tonight and make that highway run

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You don't have to call me lieutenant, Rosie
I don't want to be your son
The only lover I'm ever gonna need's
Your soft sweet little girl's tongue

[Verse 2]
Dynamite's in the belfry, playin' with the bats
Little Gun's downtown in front of Woolworth's tryin' out his attitude on all the cats
Papa's on the corner waitin' for the bus
Mama, she's home in the window waitin' there for us

[Pre-Chorus 2]
She'll be there in that chair when they wrestle her upstairs
'Cause you know we ain't gonna come
I ain't here for business, I'm only here for fun
You're the one!

[Chorus]
Rosalita, jump a little lighter
Senorita, come sit by my fire
I just want to be your lover, ain't no liar
Rosie, you're my stone desire

[Verse 3]
Jack the Rabbit, Weak Knees Willie, you know they're gonna be there
Sloppy Sue and Big Bones Bill will be comin' up for air
We're gonna play some pool, skip some school, act real cool
Stay out all night, it's gonna feel alright
So Rosie, come out tonight, Rosie, come out tonight

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Windows are for cheaters, chimneys for the poor
Closets are for hangers, winners use the door, use it, Rosie!

[Chorus]
Rosalita, jump a little lighter
Senorita, come sit by my fire
I just want to be your lover, ain't no liar
Rosie, you're my stone desire

[Interlude]
"On the piano, Professor Roy Bittan
On the bass guitar, Garry W. Tallent
On the guitar, Miami Steve
On the drums, the mighty Max
On the organ, Dan Federeci
And on the saxophone, Clarence Clemons!"

[Bridge]
Now I know your mama she don't like me
'Cause I play in a rock and roll band
I know your pop don't dig me
He never did understand
Papa lowered the boom, he locked you in your room
I'm comin' to lend a hand
I'm gonna liberate you, confiscate you
I want to be your man
Someday we'll look back on this and it will all sound funny
But now you're sad, mama's mad
Papa says he knows that I don't have any money
Your papa says he knows that I don't have any money
So papa says he knows that I don't have any money
This is last chance to get his daughter in a fine romance
The record company, Rosie, just gave me a big advance

[Verse 4]
My tires were slashed, I almost crashed, the Lord had mercy
My machine, she's a dud, stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey
Hold on tight, stay up all night, Rosie, I'm comin' on strong
By the time we meet the morning light, I will hold you in my arms

[Pre-Chorus 4]
I know a pretty little place in Southern California down San Diego way
A little café, they play guitars all night and day
You can see them in the back room strummin'
Hold tight baby, don't you I'm comin', everybody sing

[Chorus]
Rosalita, jump a little lighter
Senorita, come sit by my fire
I just want to be your lover, ain't no liar
Rosie, you're my stone desire

[Outro]
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
