TRACKSII

Note: Co-written by Bruce Springsteen and Joe Grushecky in July 1995. Grushecky released a version on his 1997 album Coming Home, recorded without the participation of Springsteen. Springsteen first performed the song live on November 4, 2010, with Joe Grushecky and The Houserockers, although the song was previously soundchecked on June 17, 2000. A Springsteen studio version was released in 2025 on the Perfect World disc of Tracks II: The Lost Albums. It's not clear when exactly this version was recorded, though the musician credits suggest that some or all of the work occurred sometime in the 2010s.
