  • Bring on the lights bits to the shape
    Closer to the grave closer to the gave
    There comes the dawn I am over this moment
    Shackled and dawn shackled and drawn
    Searching to the dark all goes on
    This moment shackled and drawn
    I was on a field spread on the shirt
    Sun little man work little man work
    Is that so wrong
    Shackled and dawn shackled and drawn
    Searching to the dark all goes on
    This moment shackled and drawn

    Freedom suns of dirty shirt
    Sun in the face shovel in the dirt
    Shovel in the dirt shackled and dawn shackled and drawn
    Searching to the dark all goes on
    This moment shackled and drawn

    Gambling man rolls the dice, workingman pays the bill
    It’s still fat and easy up on banker’s hill
    Up on banker’s hill, the party’s going strong
    Down here below we’re shackled and drawn
    Shackled and dawn shackled and drawn
    Searching to the dark all goes on
    This moment shackled and drawn
    Shackled and dawn shackled and drawn
    Searching to the dark all goes on
    This moment shackled and drawn Writer/s: BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN
