"i carried you on my back" (he sure does), "across the rusted spikes of that highway of steel" "where no more thunder sounds" (meaning when the e street band ceases to exist) "he who waits for the day's riches will be lost in the whispering tide" (stop listening to bruce and go outside). i love this song. bruce writes a lot of songs about his relationship with his audience. thunder road being an early example, tomorrow never knows being the latest. “i carried you on my back” (he sure does), “across the rusted spikes of that highway of steel” “where no more thunder sounds” (meaning when the e street band ceases to exist) “he who waits for the day’s riches will be lost in the whispering tide” (stop listening to bruce and go outside). i love this song.
