80'sn90's will always be the best years!!!

It's a great song. I am surprised it wasn't on his Greatest Hits package. Also, very surprised the album wasn't remastered and made into a box set like some of his other albums.

I remember hearing this song back in April/May of 1985 when I was in basic training in San Diego for the Navy and every time I hear this song I remember those days

These dingle berries have no clue. My wife calls me daddy, but I'm not her father. I am the man who takes care of the bills, the property and solves the problems. She is actually one month older than me and we have 3 kids. I call her momma, out of respect, because she is the mother of our 3 kids. All these sister-sensitive dipshits wanna twist the meaning from respect to some kind of pedo shit.

Sometimes songs are sped up in the control room by the audio engineers so they can make the song more ''Radio Friendly''... I remember the song by the Beatles, well by John Lennon actually, ''Across The Universe'' was the name of the tune... Not only did the Audio Engineers speed the song up, they also brought Lennon's Vocals up a Full Step, which happens from time to time in the Studio...

As someone who occasionally writes poetry, I totally get that this can be interpreted in many different ways, and that the song has different meanings for different people. That's the beauty of lyricism. (Read More) As a true crime buff, this song has an eerie exactness to the way many sophisticated predators have successfully assaulted or abducted their victims. Stalk the home, learn the patterns of the children and parents, pass through the neighborhood to see if the child is home alone, then approach the door under pretext to get the child to open it. Point being, I can see both sides. The romantic-at-heart saying its a love song poetically versed, and the pragmatically aware saying, "Yo! This is creepy AF."

I dont think like that but it does remind me of young wild lust... oh take me back..

Hey sexy red section ! When I first saw your comment I thought it was the negative of this song but I see were defending the song thank you so much! Because I heard this rumor some people with negative attitudes think this is a song about child molestation? Like The Boss would really expose himself that way no pun intended? Really too bad but people today just will jump on any bandwagon of any kind to beat on somebody else Man I am so sick of this s***! Because I heard the rumor about people thinking that and when I saw your post immediately I was so relieved thank you so much!

Magnificent music. Bruce is maybe the greatest singer-songwriter of all time. The sheer number of great songs he’s written and recorded is staggering.

Lmao You are right

I got a bad desire....

I believe this was to his band wife

So this song came out when I was young, like 3rd grade, and I always thought that he was saying walk on fire when he is saying oh I'm on fire. In fact I was completely baffled by this song when it came out. I just couldn't understand why he needed that little girl's daddy to know that he could walk on fire. 🤷

I've listened to this song and lyrics from so many and it's wrong 😳

He could of said "hey, little lady" but the next line "is your daddy home" still doesn't sit right.. whether it's a reference "to hot romance" it still doesn't sound right, even if he said "hey, little lady.. are you home alone" wouldn't of worked, this is a weird part to annoy? You can't be just, "oh yup that's relates to my feeling so it's fine with me" yet the messages are still unclear & weary 😂

Praying for his health😢

It doesn’t have to be inappropriate excitement, in relation to dating despite an age gap, within boundaries of reasonable limitations. The way a grown man loves a woman is identical to his own children, if you were a man, you’d know love in a way you cannot as a woman, because you are designed with an ability to leave, and sometimes it is the right thing to do for you and/ or your kid(s). Often it’s used without justification. Men keep their word, even should it slay us, dying for something, instead of living for nothing. The exception to the rule is non-fathers, and inexperienced (beginner level). What we do here echoes in eternity. A man will become the victorious dead, for dead liars, do lie still-

Everyone gets the lyrics wrong. He clearly says “Can he do to you the things that I DONT do”. He says that because he’s not with her.

First I want to say that videos of songs make no difference. Someone does the video for them and they are may not be exactly what they were thinking about for the song. But I get a pedophile feeling from this song and I didn't when I was young but I do now. Hey little girl is your daddy home. Its like hey little girl want some candy?

She is living with his parents it is because she is still a minor, the song sounds quite strange

It’s means older boyfriend aswell … it’s used by woman who call the man daddy … look it up. Nothing to do with her daddy, she’s a woman looked after materialisticly and obviously he hasn’t got that kind of money, he’s a macanic

Taking it out of context, its about young guy in high school who is on love with a girl at his school

I guess people are not paying attention to the words

Creepy

This is sick as fuck. Why is he excited about a young girl home alone? And checking the whereabouts of her dad! His freight train running through his head and being on fire is knowing his opportunity finally arrived to rape a child. Lesser sick songs have been cancelled but this one does it for me for the song and the artist.
