I read a story, about somebody Who drove his family off a bridge I have a feeling like, that's what's happening But, I don't know which of us it is There have been times you've kind of scared me But I am the one who will not quit But if I'm to blame then, I've got questions like What if the gas pedal sticks? What if it hurts? Mmmmm Last night I dreamt of, the bar in Chinatown Sticky counters and vinyl booths Playing Springsteen '88, his almost country phase And I was dancing for you I spill your tall can, spill my guts that's How it felt to tell the truth I put my hand up across the dartboard and Then I told you to shoot What if it hurts? Mmmmm What if it hurts? Mmmmm It's gonna (Aaah aaah aah) You said it's gonna (Aaah aaah aah) What can go wrong, will go wrong 'Cause you bet that it would So you stacked up the odds So it Hurt, hurt It's gonna Hurt, mmmmm Its gonna Mmmmm
