Bruuuce.com - Lyric Interpretations

Please note that you can also find some lyrics to songs Bruce has covered at his shows.

Carwyn Fowler, Mike Boggs, Elyce Turner and others have given us some fascinating insight into nearly all of Bruce's songs below. Thanks to both of them.

Additionally, Mats Eriksson from Sweden has transcribed the "Night on the Town" songbook for us, so cheers for that, as well.

Thanks to the "Way It Is Songbook", we have some additional input from John Hornsby, who was instrumental in lyric writing (did I just say that?) in the first few albums.

I'm hoping to get a lot of response from this, and put up other people's interpretations as well. So if you have any additions, let me know.

Meantime, tuck into these...
