The line is 'Cut loose like a deuce Another runner in the night'
Regards
Blinded By The Light
Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older I tripped the
merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the
ground
Some all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot snappin' his fingers
clappin' his hands
And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot with a whatnot in her
hand
And now young Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws
his
lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-menot whispers daddy's within earshot save the
buckshot turn up the band
And she was blinded by the light. Cut loose like a deuce
Another runner in the night. Blinded by the light
She got down but she never got tight, but she'll make it alright
Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone preacher from the east
He says: "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone, that's where
they
expect it least"
And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner all alone watchin'
the
young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messing with his frozen zone to remind
him of
the feeling of romance
Yeah he was blinded by the light. Cut loose like a deuce
Another runner in the night. Blinded by the light
He got down but she never got tight, but he's gonna make it tonight
Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong if you play that song
with
the funky break
And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe
to
go outside
And little Early-Pearly came in by her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed
a
ride
Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer playin' backyard
bombardier
Yes and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent a dude with a calling
card, he
said, do what you like, but don't do it here
Well I jumped up, spit in the air, fell on the ground, asked wich was the
way
back home
He said take a right at the light, keep going straight until right, and
then
boy you're on your own
And now in Zanzibar a shootin' star was ridin' in a side car hummin' a
lunar
tune
Yes, and the avatar said blow the bar but first remove the cookie jar,
we're
gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon
And some kidnapped handicap was complaining that he caught the clap from
some
mousetrap he bought last night
Well I unsnapped his skull cap and between his ears I saw a gap but he'd
figured he'd be all right
He was just blinded by the light. Cut loose like a deuce
Another runner in the night. Blinded by the light
Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun
Oh but mama that's where the fun is

night." Anyway ... you'll get the lyrics here:

Blinded By The Light
(Bruce Springsteen)
>Verse 1
Madman drummers bummers indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat, in
the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way in to his hat.
With a boulder on my shoulder feeling kinda' older I tripped the merry go
'round, with this very unpleasing sneezing and weezing the
caliope crashed to the ground.
>Chorus
The caliope crashed to the ground and she was blinded by the light, wrapped
up like a deuce another runner in the night.
>Verse 2
Some silicone sister with her manager mister told me I got what it takes,
she said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong play the song with the
funky break and go kart mozart was checkin' out the weather chart see if it
was safe outside and little Early Pearly came by in his curly wurly and
asked me if I needed a ride.
>Chorus
The caliope crashed to the ground and she was blinded by the light, wrapped
up like a deuce another runner in the night.
Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in
the sand and some bloodshot forget me not his daddy's within earshot save
the buckshot turn up the band.
>>Finale
She got down but she never got tight she's gonna' make it through the night.

First recorded (and written) by Bruce Springsteen from his Asbury Park album,
the lyrics were "Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night."
Later rerecorded by Manfred Mann the chorus sounded more like "Wrapped up like
a douche another runner in the night."

Manfredd Mann & also Bruce Springsteen.

The Manfred Mann version is "revved up like a deuce, another runner in the
night" (a "deuce" is a 1932 Ford Model A coupe automobile).

1) Blinded By The Light (07:06)
Music and Lyrics from Bruce Springsteenn (1976)
Madmann drummers bummers Indians in the summer
With a teenage diplomat in the dumps with the mumps
As the adolescent pumps his way into his hat.
With a boulder on my shoulder feeling kind older
I tripped a merry-go-round with this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing
The calliope crashed to the ground
Chorus:
Blinded by the light wrapped up like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light she got down but she never got tight
She's gonna make it through the night.
Some silicone sister with her manager mister
Told me I've got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong
Play the song with the funky break and go-kart Mozart
Was checking out the weather chart to see if it was safe outside
And little Early Pearly come by in her curly wurly and asked me
If I needed a ride.
Chorus
Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
'Cos mama that's where the fun ist.
Some brimstone baritone Anticyclone rolling stone
Preacher from the east says dehtrone the dictaphone hit in the funny bone
That's where they expect it least. And some new mown
chaperone was standing in the corner watching the young girls
dance and some fresh-sewn moonstone was playing with his
frozen zone reminding him of romance.
Chorus.
