My Father's House Lyrics

Cover art for My Father's House lyrics by Bruce Springsteen

One of Springsteen's greatest songs, in my opinion.

Irrelevant whether or not the "father" is question is God -- the theme of broken families certainly looms large in Springsteen's other songs, as do issues of faith, and both are contained here. The other recurring theme is the narrator's feeling of being helpless and lost.

Fabulous last line!
