Live 06 Oct 2007 version
| Patti Scialfa: | They say love |
| A love has its very own light | |
| That can shine through the darkest night | |
| That we've heard of | |
| Bruce Springsteen: | And that light |
| That you may want so much | |
| Ah, maybe you can never touch | |
| Though you may try | |
| Both: | Now at night I dream |
| I'm all alone | |
| Big sledgehammer and a cold dark stone | |
| Man swing the hammer | |
| World begin to shake | |
| Patti Scialfa: | I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak |
| Bruce Springsteen: | I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak |
| Bruce Springsteen: | You gotta work |
| Patti Scialfa: | With me baby |
| Bruce Springsteen: | You gotta work |
| Patti Scialfa: | With me baby |
| Bruce Springsteen: | You gotta work |

| Bruce Springsteen: | You gotta work |
| Patti Scialfa: | With me baby, gotta work with me baby |
| Patti Scialfa: | She says "here, man, (oh na na na, na oh na na na) |
| I've given you my flesh and blood (oh na na na, na oh na na na) | |
| That just wasn't good enough (oh na na na, na oh na na na) | |
| You wanted my soul" (oh na na na, na oh na na na) | |
| Bruce Springsteen: | He says "girl, (oh na na na, na oh na na na) |
| No matter how hard I try (oh na na na, na oh na na na) | |
| You ain't ever satisfied (oh na na na, na oh na na na) | |
| No no no" (oh na na na, na oh na na na) (no, no, no) | |
| Both: | Now at night the same dream |
| I'm all alone | |
| Big sledgehammer and a cold dark stone | |
| Man swing the hammer | |
| World begin to shake | |
| Patti Scialfa: | I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak |
| Bruce Springsteen: | I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak |
| Patti Scialfa: | I'm just living in a town called Heartbreak |

The above lyrics are for the live 06 Oct 2007 performance of TOWN CALLED HEARTBREAK at Wachovia Center in Philadelphia, PA, during the Magic Tour. The song was performed as a duet between Patti Scialfa and Bruce Springsteen, in a full-band arrangement very similar to the officially released "Edit version" of the song. See Patti Scialfa's album version for more details.
Thanks Jake (ol'catfishinthelake at BTX and Greasy Lake) for the lyrics help.
