Another song written in 1976 and recorded in 2023...

The radio sang Thunder Road
Cigarette smoke in the air
As the kitchen sink overflowed 
There are voices in the mountains
All the losers we hold dear
The rain is coming it’s near

Hands like live wires
Sparking a connection
Stairs to nowhere
Fueled our affection
Give me some time
To sort out the crime
The light from a flicker
Of lost signals and missed signs

The empty stores and coffee stains
This old town’s a ghost
What’s left is circling the drain
Coyotes cry and then fade away
Only her memory stays

Hands like live wires
Sparking a connection
Stairs to nowhere
Fueled our affection
Give me some time
To sort out the crime
The light from a flicker
Of lost signals and missed signs
