Gaslight Anthem, The - Bring It On Lyrics






My queen of the Bronx
Blue eyes and spitfire
I saw you walking back and forth about another boy
Thinking that you may want to leave

So give me the fevers that just won't break
And give me the children you don't want to raise
And tell me about the Cool, he sings you in those songs
If it's better than my love, then bring it on

And take it back out to the streets where you know you used to be
For the Romeos uptown, if I bring you down
And you're tired of those vows
And you're really walking out

So give me the fevers that just won't break
And give me the children you don't want to raise
And tell me about the Cool, he sings you in those songs
If it's better than my love, baby, bring it on
Oh, bring it on

Stop clicking your red heels and wishing for home
I'm hearing that he tells you he can read your palms
Is he better than my love? (better than my love?)
Is he better than my love? (better than my love?)

So I found the letters with the reasons to things
You've been feeling that he says they'll never know
And you say the night just got too cold

Well, everybody's cold
Who's gonna keep my baby warm
When everybody goes?

So give me the fevers that just won't break
And give me the children you don't want to raise
And tell me about the Cool, he sings you in those songs
If it's better than my love

Well, then wait a minute, wait a minute
(Wasn't I good to you?)
Wait a minute, wait a minute
(Wasn't I good to you?)
Wait a minute, wait a minute
(You don't know what's good for you)

So give me the fevers that just won't break
And give me the children you don't want to raise
And tell me about the Cool, he sings you in those songs
You've been my baby for so long, come on, bring it on
Oh, bring it on

Stop clicking your red heels and wishing for home
I'm hearing that he tells you he can read your palms
If he's better than my love
If he's better than my love, then go on, take it all

    I'm taking a dump while watching this

  6. T.... ....

    Nearly 9 years ago I was an anxious high school kid listening to this album on my iPod the day it was released while vacuuming at my custodian job. Feels like last week. Time needs to chill the hell out.

    T.... ....

    I woke up in my 50's this morning. Don't even ask me how that happened. I swear I am 23.

  7. R.... M....

    My son was talking to me about this song, and he said it almost had him in tears. 10/10 Great song. :)

  8. D.... L....

    I'm awaiting my first divorce. All my wife's friends are doing it and she likes jumping off bridges.

    D.... L....

    Come to Brasil!!
    Please!!!
    Love you

  11. E.... R....

    I love that he clicks his foot as he sings 'stop clicking your red heels and wishing for home.'

    A.... A....

    Alexander Altamira alex levine

  20. S.... D....

    I love how Dave Hause's necklace makes a cameo

    I just wanna hang out with these guys

  30. J.... S....

    Why is dave hause just crying in the corner?

    J.... S....

    because its dave hause. he can. hahaha

    J.... S....

    @Lisa Cortese lol u made my day haha :D

    J.... S....

    +Jonny Shepherd This sounds like the setup to a good joke.

    J.... S....

    I believe Brian wrote this song for Dave and the divorce of his wife?

  31. M.... H....

    I love how Alex L. always dances while he plays bass :)

    M.... H....

    It's pretty much impossible to not dance playing TGA bass lines.

  32. J.... P....

    Very good song love gaslight anthem

  33. A.... P....

    They don't look nearly as rock'n'roll as they sound.... Sounds of Springsteen, wardrobe of a homeless Mumford&Sons......

    A.... P....

    Cause you haven't heard their first albums

    A.... P....

    lisa, im not sure who you're talking about here... :>

    A.... P....

    @Benny D haha I'm talking to Alice who seems to be really judgmental.

    A.... P....

    what exactly does rock n roll look like? cause they have the heart and soul and that is what counts. eff what they dress like. the music industry is severely lacking in talent these days and this band is amazing. they are humble guys from Jersey and that's what they dress like. if anything it makes their music more relatable.

    A.... P....

    Uh they look better than Mumford and sons and you can’t really say that because these were around before Mumford and sons.
    They look just as amazing as they rock. Imo

  34. J.... J....

    Soundtrack for me to get along..hell..sometimes good music just makes you get along everyday..thanks.

  35. J.... H....

    sounds like old springsting stuck in the past got to get out of here

  36. T.... ....

    God dammit there aint nobody cooler than Gaslight, except maybe Dave Hause! Good shit right here :D

  37. C.... B....

    love this song! Has a classic feel.

  38. T.... ....

    Oh hey Dave Hause

  39. D.... G....

    Anyone should check out Brian Fallon's old bands!!....."BRIAN FALLON & THE CINCINNATI RAIL TIE" and "THIS CHARMLESS MAN".... The first group i just mention'd has a great E.P. called "GRAB YOUR JACKET" (I think its on youtube?)... There are only 4 or 5 songs on it... but they are all GREAT :) ....Danx

    D.... G....

    And what about "The Horrible Crowes"

    D.... G....

    Yeah.... I've just started listening to them :)  ...Thanks for the tip!........ The ones I listed are quite old groups, .... So the production is worse... but they're great to listen to if you want to hear Brian Fallon's progression as a songwriter/singer.... Cheers.... (Oh yeah!...... if you have a minute, check out "DSM - Global Collective" ........ They have a facebook page and a Bandcamp page...... Free Music! and if you contact them you can get involved and write lyrics, play guitar... even sing on one of their records!!!.... honestly!... They are a collective and have members living all over the world!!!).... :) 

    D.... G....

    Well thanks for the information, il think about it and cheers xD

    D.... G....

  45. A.... C....

    I don't really dig too much new music but I dig these guys. It's almost as if they are playing your own "soundtrack of summer." This is totally a band I would have jammed in my car in July in my younger days. Not bad at all!

  46. I.... G....

    Brian Fallon <3

  47. B.... K....

    Dave Hause 

  48. T.... F....

    Brian Fallon is a hunk.

  49. G.... ....

    Yeah these guys have such a great sound.  I mistakenly thought that American Slang was by The Killers for some reason but Gaslight Anthem is a much better band so I am so glad that I fell in love with that song and discovered these guys! <3

  50. Z.... H....

    :)

  68. K.... M....

    Brian marry me please! Haha. I tried not to like this band when they came out but I couldn't. I can literally feel the passion in Brian's voice when he sings. It's fucking awesome and sets you Gus apart from the fakers. And idk what that dudes talking about, I always dance when I hear your songs at the bar. It gets me pumped. Love these guys.

  69. C.... H....

    Dave Hause!

  70. M.... M....

  75. V.... J....

    Somebody get Dave an Academy Award

  76. D.... D....

    Gaslight is such an amazing band...

    If you guys have moment I'd really like if you could check out this band. They play music similar to Gaslight and it'd mean a lot if you guys could spare a couple of minutes. If you're too busy then keep doing what you're doing, however if you’ve got a second to kill then please check them out!

    watch?v=ra11nZzF3SA

    Their band is called American Wildfire. If you like them, then be sure to like their fb page!

    /pages/American-Wildfire/11795­3044991996?fref=ts

  77. J.... L....

    Too true. I listen to their albums over and over aha, don't understand how you could possibly dislike them!? Brian's a genuine musician, he's there because he loves it, he's what music is all about

  78. P.... ....

    the loved ones are my favourite band. dave hauses C'MOn KID saved my life.
    then he gets together with brian and plays acoustic shows and appears in this video of my fave gaslight song. i can't help but smile...

  79. P.... ....

    people are dumb. this isn't produced by some guy who wants money. gaslight plays instruments and you can't dance to it at a bar...that's why they hate it...they're dumbasses. brian is a fucking genius. he restores my faith that there are still good song writers out there. fuck them bro more gaslight for us!

  80. 1.... S....

    good stuff!!! check us out and share the love

  81. J.... L....

    Lawlll why would you unlike this? Obviously 27 people don't know good music. Brian Fallon is my God <3

  82. u.... ....

    I wouldn't hurt you, Dave Hause

  83. c.... ....

    whats douchey about his hat? just put your snapback on and be happy.

  84. s.... ....

    his name is brian and your douchey

  85. J.... V....

    Lead singers hat is douchey

  86. R.... R....

    Sho' is.

  87. m.... o....

    best!!

  88. N.... F....

    is that Dave Hause

  89. S.... ....

    One of my favorite songs ever

  90. B.... ....

    ...you don't know what's good for you...

  91. t.... ....

    It's meant to be metaphorical.
