I Don't Want to go Home

A song for the times. Labor Day eve. The last blast for the New Jersey shore bars. Another season, another year. This song written by Steve Van Zandt in 1976 is as poignant today as it was three decades ago. Penned for Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, the song is equally good by Bruce Springsteen. This is Jersey rock and roll. Enjoy it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXB_0wvLUm8

I DON'T WANT TO GO HOME

I know that it's getting late
but I don't want to go home
I am in no hurry baby time can wait
I don't want to go home
Listen to the man sing his song
I don't want to go home
I don't mind baby to stay alnight long
cause I don't want to go home

Listen baby

I know we had to try
to reach up and touch the sky baby
what ever happend to you and I
that I don't want to go home

Look at all the people staying
Saying I don't want to go home
In the night .....
I don't want to go home
I know the words to the song I feel
I don't want to go home
I know it's talking about the way I feel
I don't want to go home

Listen baby

I know we had to try
to reach up and touch the sky baby
what ever happend to you and I
that I don't want to go home

I want to hear people laughing and having a good time
I want to know why she told me she had to go
Why did she leave me lonely

I know it's time to go
but I don't want to go home
You don't play the blues soft and low
cause I don't want to go home

Listen baby

I know we had to try
to reach up and touch the sky baby
what ever happend to you and I
that I don't want to go home

Makes you want to go to a steamy bar. And see these guys again. Look how young Southside and Bruce are in the video. And they are still great today. So it goes.
