Springsteen, Bruce - Sleepy Joe's Cafe Lyrics






There's a place out on the highway 'cross the San Bernardino line
Where the truckers and the bikers gather every night at the same time
At seven the band comes in and locals dance the night away
At Sleepy Joe's Café

I drive on down from the big town Friday when the clock strikes five
As the red sun sets in the ocean, I start to come alive
Summer girls in the parking lot slap on their makeup and they flirt the night away
Sleepy Joe's Café

Joe came home in '45 and took out a G.I. loan
On a sleepy little spot an Army cook could call his own
He married May, the highway come in and they woke up to find
They were sitting on top of a pretty little gold mine

Saturday night the lights are bright as the folks pour in from town
Joe keeps the blues playin', at the bar May lays the beers down
I come through the door and feel the workweek slip away
See you out on the floor and Monday morning's a million miles away
At Sleepy Joe's Café
At Sleepy Joe's Café
At Sleepy Joe's Café

  4. M.... E....

    This is just a fun song. The rhythm is great and makes me think of fun times with friends.
    I get not everyone will like the song, but that's okay. We all have our personal taste. However, to criticize Bruce for his songs is absurd.

  5. w.... G....

    C’est frais j’adore !

  6. T.... R....

    I'm sorry, this song is embarrassing for Bruce. It makes Crush On You look like an artistic masterpiece. If you're after nostalgia songs about cool places listen to The Backroom by Cold Chisel

  7. G.... S....

    Grammys galore this album 😀

  8. R.... M....

    Is this about Joe Biden?

  9. B.... K....

    A Mavericks¨look alike song

    Horrible. Horrible. Love you to death Bruce, and i respect those who like it, but i didn't. Didn't get it.

  15. c.... ....

    The way this features Giordano, it has to be an E Street song when that tour comes to pass.

  16. D.... L....

    Once the Boss always the Boss

  17. H.... S....

    Herr. Meyer, du burde lytte til god pop- rock, som denne cd med Bruce Springsteen ,named “ western Stars”

  23. M.... W....

    HEEEEEE! HEEEEE! SLEEEEPY JOE!!!!!! Really? Can't stop laughing!!!!!

  24. M.... S....

    I think Joe Biden should use this as a campaign song just for shits & giggles.

  25. E.... G....

    I finally got the cd for my birthday on 8/17. I was enjoying the cd. This song came on. I thought that I really liked how upbeat this song is. Then I heard Bruce say San Bernardino! I’ve been a fan for a long time and couldn’t believe we finally made it into a Bruce song!! So cool! It seems like Bruce just keeps getting closer to my house! Well, if he he ever makes here, I sure hope he brings Patti!!

  26. V.... B....

    My daughter (3 year old) likes " Sleepy Joes Cafe" tune very much. She starts dancing everytime I play this

  32. D.... T....

    A simply great album! I thought I found the Nebraska melodies and the dark and dramatic tones, but I found Bruce with refined melodies, wide-ranging and with his usual immense soul ...

  33. c.... ....

    Genio!!!! 🎶🎸💚

  34. J.... B....

    J adore bravo Bruce

  35. b.... ....

    He is trying way too hard to stay relevant. And failing. Let it go Bruce, its ok to admit that your out of ideas. You had a better run than most.

  36. e.... h....

    This music really doesn't fit my lifestyle.
    I'm sure for what it is it's just great.
    My head's not there.
    I'd rather listen to Frank Sinatra.

    e.... h....

    The Title is very NOW, given that the campaign for US president has begun,. The present incumbent gives nicknames to those involved, the title of this song and the former vice president's nick name are the same . Had to be said.

    The Boss is a master story teller. He brings his lyrics to life. Listening to Sleepy Joe's Cafe you can almost see and experience its atmosphere.
